Pleasanton police are investigating multiple ATM robberies that happened last week across the city. Police said to expect increased patrols around local bank parking lots to help deter would-be robbers. In each case, two to three suspects, wearing dark clothing and full-face masks, approached victims during early evening hours. The suspects threatened and physically assaulted victims to steal cash. Victims reported seeing no weapons, but police warn that doesn’t mean the suspects weren’t armed. Based on similarities in time of day and descriptions of suspects, detectives believe these incidents are related. But each robbery involved a different getaway vehicle. Police want people to be aware of their surroundings when using ATMs, especially after dark. If possible, use indoor or well-lit ATMs in populated areas. Avoid withdrawing large amounts of cash at once. If you’re the victim or witness a similar crime call 911 immediately.
LE should set up a bait team
L.E. needs to shoot on site, make these dirtbags think about their actions!!!
Shotgun loaded with .00 buck shot, weapon of choice.
Just “illegal carry” like the street folks and let a jury of 12 decide when the aggressor is on a shirt…
We don’t see our local elected officials commenting on this.
Perhaps they are of the opinion these were mostly peaceful beatings/robberies.
