Victim fights back
On Sept. 29 at about 11:50 a.m. a subject entered the Hollywood Riviera Car Wash in the 1500 block of South PCH and brought an item to the counter with money to purchase it. When the cashier opened the register, the suspect allegedly threatened him with a gun. He was pointing the gun at the cashier and taking money out of the cash drawer when the cashier grabbed the gun. The suspect ran out of the business. The victim, armed with the suspect's .22 caliber revolver, chased him through the parking lot to Avenue H. As a white pickup truck slowed for the suspect to jump into it, a passenger in the truck allegedly pointed another handgun at the victim. The victim fired four to five shots at the suspects. The truck fled east on Avenue H and south on Palos Verdes Blvd. Police are seeking information concerning the crime. The robber was described as a short, stocky male about 21-27 years old, wearing jeans, a blue T-shirt and a dark baseball cap. The driver was described as a male about 21-27 years old. The truck was described as a white Chevy S-10 or Toyota Tacoma-type truck with utility racks that had two horizontal rails and trashcans and a broom in the bed.
