A man and a woman suspected of robbing a Subway restaurant at gunpoint were arrested following an investigation, the Hemet Police Department reported Monday.

The robbery occurred at 9:11 p.m. on July 7, at the Subway at 3515 W. Stetson Ave. in Hemet, said Lt. Dean Evans of the Hemet Police Department.

Police reporting to the scene met with two employees who said three suspects demanded money at gunpoint. The employees were forced into a refrigerator and suspects fled with several hundred dollars from the cash register, along with personal effects belonging to the employees, said Evans.

An investigation by Hemet Police Department detectives led to the identity of two of the suspects, said Evans. Detectives were able to track one suspect to a residence in Yorba Linda on Thursday afternoon and another to a residence in Beaumont Friday morning.

Corine Moreno, 35, was arrested for suspicion of kidnapping and robbery, Evans said.

Raynaldo Salcido, 49, of Yorba Linda, was arrested for suspicion of kidnapping, robbery and being a felon in possession of a firearm, Evans said.

A parole hold was also placed on Salcido, Evans said.

Detectives are still looking for the third suspect, Evans said.

It is believed that the suspects are also responsible for two additional robberies in Moreno Valley and Sun City, Evans said.
