Officials seek man who held child during armed robbery

NORWALK -- Detectives released surveillance photos Wednesday of a man they say carried out an armed robbery in front of a liquor store while carrying a young child.
The crime was reported about 4:40 p.m. on Oct. 28 in the 11000 block of Rosecrans Avenue, Los Angeles County sheriff's officials said in a written statement.
Deputies described the suspect as a Latino man in his early 20s, about 5 feet 11 inches tall and 180 pounds, wearing a black baseball cap with an "LA" logo on it, a blue and white striped shirt and black shorts.
He approached a 37-year-old man who was getting into his vehicle in the parking lot of a liquor store, according the the sheriff's statement.
The robber, who was holding a Latino boy between 4 and 6 years old, lifted his shirt to brandish a handgun to the victim as he demanded the victim's wallet and some alcohol the victim had just bought at the store, sheriff's officials said.
Anyone with information about the robber is asked to call the sheriff's Norwalk Station at (562) 863-8711.
