Suspects 'Terrorized' Silver Lake Clerk in Sunset Blvd. Robbery
The first suspect
Not too long after, he came back with the second suspect, who was carrying a duffle bag. Then the first suspect pulled a gun on the clerk and forced her to the ground where the other one tied her up before emptying the cash register and taking a few other items. "They were there for quite a bit of time," said Detective Emily Raupp with the LAPD over the phone. Despite it being mid morning, "they weren't in any hurry to leave."

He was last seen wearing a black t-shirt with a dollar sign on the front, blue jeans, black gloves, white shoes, and “aviator” style sunglasses. He was carrying a blue duffle bag with black handles and a black nylon case with a shoulder strap.
