HACIENDA HEIGHTS — A gunman escaped with an undisclosed amount of cash late Tuesday after holding up a Hacienda Heights gas station, authorities said.
The crime took place about 9:35 p.m. at a Shell gas station at 3060 South Hacienda Blvd., Los Angeles County sheriff’s Lt. Steven Katz said in a written statement.
A man in his 20s, standing about 5 feet 5 inches tall and weighing about 180 pounds, “entered the location and demanded money at gunpoint,” Katz said.
The robber took cash and fled in a waiting vehicle being driven by a second robber, he added.
No further information was released Wednesday.
