April 13, 2024 - Los Angeles - Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) officials report the Department’s Hollenbeck Area detectives are seeking additional robbery victims.

On April 9, 2024, two victims were lured into an apartment in the 2900 block of North Main Street by a female suspect they met on social media. Once they arrived, two male suspects emerged from hiding and demanded property from the victims at gunpoint. One of the suspects struck a victim with a handgun. The suspects were observed driving a 2008, 4-door, blue Chevrolet Malibu.

During the investigation, it was determined the suspects had used this same scheme to entrap other robbery victims in the past. The below suspects have been identified as having taken part in this crime and detectives are working on identifying a third outstanding suspect.
