3 Men Rob UPS Driver At Petaluma Verizon Store, Police Say

PETALUMA, CA — Three men are sought in the robbery of a UPS driver Friday morning outside a Petaluma Verizon store, police said. The UPS driver stopped to make a delivery to Verizon at 401 Kenilworth Drive and at 10:48 a.m. as he was unloading packages from the truck, two men "pushed and grabbed several boxes off his hand truck," according to a statement from the Petaluma Police Department.

The two robbers got into a Silver Hyundai SUV with new dealer plates, driven by a third suspect, police said.

The car was last seen heading out of the parking lot and onto southbound U.S. Highway 101.

The delivery driver was not injured.

Police said the boxes taken in the robbery contained cellphones and watches, although the exact loss was not immediately known.

The suspects were described as three black men; one was wearing a gray hoodie pulled over his face and another was wearing a white hoodie over his face, which made it difficult to get a good description, police said.

Anyone who witnessed the robbery or has information related to the incident is asked to call the Petaluma Police Department at 707-778-4372.
