Four armed robberies unfolded across Stockton’s Lakeview and Park Districts on Monday, including two cases involving juveniles, according to police.
The string of robberies began around 7:02 p.m. when a male teenager was leaving a business in the 4900 block of Pacific Avenue in Lakeview. Police said three male juveniles approached him, one of whom pulled a knife and demanded his belongings. The suspects took the victim’s property and fled.
Less than 30 minutes later and just a few blocks away, three male juveniles allegedly struck again — this time targeting a 23-year-old woman and a male teen at a business in the 5200 block of Pacific Avenue. Police said the suspects took the victims’ property and fled. The juvenile was unharmed, while the woman suffered a minor injury but declined medical attention.
Later that evening, at 9:30 p.m., a more aggressive robbery was reported in the 400 block of Court Street in the Park District. Police said four armed men confronted three other men — ages 31, 22, and 27 — and demanded their belongings. The victims complied, and the suspects fled.
The night’s final robbery occurred just 40 minutes later near Weber Avenue and D Street, also in the Park District. A 27-year-old man was reportedly held at gunpoint by two armed men while sitting in his vehicle. The suspects demanded his property and fled the scene.
No arrests have been announced, and police have not said whether the cases are connected. The suspects’ identities remain publicly unknown.
