6 Milpitas Residents Involved In Armed Robbery, Theft From Local Safeway: Police

Six Milpitas residents were arrested in connection with an armed robbery and theft slightly more than a week ago at a local Safeway, according to police.

Officers were called at 6:41 a.m. on Jan. 24 to the supermarket at 555 E. Calaveras Blvd. after a report of several individuals leaving the store with shoplifted beer, alcohol and sandwiches, said the Milpitas Police Department.

Police said that when a Safeway employee asked one of the suspects if he was going to pay for the items, the worker said the shopper removed a knife from his waistband and brandished it at the employee before leaving the store.

The suspects left the parking lot in a red 2010 Hyundai Accent, and a Milpitas officer located the vehicle on Smithwood Street.

Investigators determined six individuals were involved, police said.

Among those arrested, Trevor Hall, 24 of Milpitas, was identified as the one armed with the knife, police said, and he was booked into the Santa Clara County Jail for suspicion of armed robbery and conspiracy to commit a crime.

Other Milpitas residents, Robert Delgado, 26, Enrique Hernandez, 36, Edward Leal, 21, and Anthony Davis, 34, were booked into the Santa Clara County Jail for alleged petty theft and conspiracy to commit a crime, police said.

In addition, video surveillance from Safeway showed Sarah Davis, 23 and also from Milpitas, was involved in the theft of the items, the department stated. She was later cited and released at her residence for petty theft and conspiracy to commit a crime.

Anyone with any information regarding this investigation or other similar incidents occurring in the city
is encouraged to call the Milpitas Police Department at (408) 586-2400.
