Two men are wanted in an armed robbery involving two tourists visiting Southern California.
The robbery was reported early Friday morning near La Cienega Boulevard and Romaine Street. The victims, tourists from England who had been in Southern California for about a day, said they were approached by two men demanding their belongings as they were leaving a nightclub.
“They jumped on us, grabbed us,” said Williams Saunders. “One of them had a small pistol with him and he pointed it at my head.
“I’ve never seen a gun before, let alone had one to my head. I honestly thought I was going to lose my life.”
Saunders ran into a nearby restaurant. His friend fought with the robbers on the street.
The men took away their $50,000 and $27,000 Rolex watches, the victims said. They also took off with about $5,000 in cash and a Christian Dior bag containing important travel documents.
No serious injuries were reported. Detailed descriptions of the robbers were not immediately available.
