Background:
On Wednesday night, September 9th, about 9:20 P.M., Deputies were called to the La Bannana store at 3582 Mark Jason in the Montana Vista area about an aggravated robbery. While en route, they received another call about the same offense at El Pasito meat market in the 4000 block of Desert Meadows. And while at that location, a third call came in about yet another aggravated robbery at the Dollar General store located at 14392 Montana.
As deputes went to the Dollar General store, they saw an all-terrain vehicle leaving the area at a high rate of speed with the headlights off. They attempted to catch the ATV as it continued to speed through the desert, but lost sight of it a short time later. The ATV was later found abandoned in the desert near Desert Meadows. The Deputies followed foot impressions leading from the ATV but eventually lost them in the sand.
Two .22 caliber handguns, each with two rounds, were located about 50 yards from the ATV. Surveillance video from the Dollar General shows two suspects entering the store and displaying handguns. They were wearing cholo-type caps and bandannas over their faces. In one of the robberies committed earlier that night, the suspects were reported to be wearing ski masks.
