That's a fact! Man robs Torrance Jack in the Box
“My wife was in the drive-through and was told someone inside had a gun? Haven’t seen a story on it. One may have been run and I missed it. Thanks.”
The answer is yes, a gunman robbed the Jack in the Box about 8:15 p.m.
The man walked in with a handgun, demanded money and ran away with an undisclosed amount of cash, Torrance police officer Dave Crespin said.
Holdups like this are generally reported in our Police Log, which runs Tuesday through Saturday in the Daily Breeze print edition. Torrance’s police log runs on Tuesdays.
This particular crime will appear on next week’s blotter, compiled by my colleague Stephanie Walton.

What about the Robbery at our Post Office in Harbor City? I walked by right after it had happened, and the Federal Police was there.
And there is a $50,000 reward, but no one knows about that exciting event in February. Is it for "insiders" only? Why is our Councilwoman Janice Hahn keeping such things a secret? --including the devious mugging in the park, across the street from Kaiser Permanente [Memorial Day].
