Man And Woman Robbed At Gunpoint In Calabasas Parking Lot

CALABASAS, CA —A man and a woman were robbed of jewelry at gunpoint on Saturday night in the parking lot of a Calabasas restaurant, KTLA reported. The man was pistol-whipped and was taken to a local hospital, according to KABC.

The incident took place between 11 p.m. and midnight near Sagebrush Cantina, 23527 Calabasas Rd. near the border with Los Angeles. The Los Angeles Police Department said no arrests have been made in the case, but that it continues to investigate the incident.

According to police, the couple's Porsche had just pulled into the restaurant's parking lot when two men in a gray SUV pulled up behind them. The men got out of the vehicle and confronted the couple with pistols, demanding jewelry and other valuables, police said.

The victims resisted, which led to a confrontation.

Police said one suspect hit the man in the head with a pistol, opening up wounds that bled substantially.

KTLA reported that video footage from the scene showed a man who was visibly bloody from his injuries sitting on a stretcher.

The Los Angeles Fire Department said the victim was taken by ambulance to a hospital, which was not a trauma center. The spokesperson did not offer any update on the man's condition, according to KTLA.

The city of Calabasas confirmed the incident on social media on Sunday, and said it had requested increased law enforcement presence in the area that day.

KABC said Sunday night that a detailed description of the suspects and their vehicle was not immediately available.
