On Tuesday, May 16, at about 11:50 a.m., the Chevron gas station at 2950 Westminster Ave. was robbed, according to a statement issued by the Seal Beach Police Department. A man entered the store and displayed a black semi-automatic handgun at the cashier. He demanded money and handed the cashier a green plastic grocery bag. The cashier complied with his demands and placed about $100 in the bag. The cashier gave the bag back to the suspect who then fled the location on foot towards the Leisure World Shopping Center.
The suspect was described as a man, Hispanic in appearance, in his mid-30s, with a black mustache, and short hair. He was wearing a long white t-shirt, khaki pants or shorts, and black baseball cap with a white emblem. The suspect possibly had a tattoo on his face or neck.
