From the Walnut Creek PD:
On 1/06/16 at 2333 hours, the Walnut Creek Police Department (WCPD) received a call that a robbery had just occurred at the 7-11 store located at 301 N. Civic Drive. Surveillance video showed the suspect fled northbound on foot. Officers arrived within a minute and set up a perimeter. A WCPD K-9 tracked the scent but no one was located.
The suspect brandished a handgun at the victim/employee and took an undisclosed amount of cash from the cash register before fleeing. No one was injured in the crime.
The suspect is believed to be the same responsible for recent robberies in Walnut Creek, Redwood City and San Leandro. Investigators from all involved agencies are working together to get the suspect identified.
