“We believe it was an inside job, based on a variety of factors,” Detective Capt. Timothy Torell told CLIFFVIEW PILOT this afternoon. “He apparently knew when the diner closes, that money was being brought from there and that it was a significant amount.”
The victim had just left after closing when the gunman ambushed him, demanding money, and took off with an undisclosed amount of cash around 12:45 a.m., Torell said.
He described the robber as Latino, in his 20s and about 5-foot-7, wearing all black.
Anyone with information that could help catch the robber is eligible for a cash reward by calling Crimestoppers: (844) 466-6789.
All calls remain confidential.
