Police Search For Two Suspects in Armed Robbery

Police are searching for two suspects in an armed robbery and
assault in San Carlos early Sunday morning that left one man with minor
injuries.

At around 1:50 a.m., a man was walking along the 1100 block of Eaton Avenue in San Carlos when two men clad in black ski masks and black sweatshirts approached him. One suspect brandished a knife and demanded the man's wallet.

As the man handed over his wallet, one of the suspects slashed the
victim's forearm with the knife, causing a 3 to 4-inch cut, police said.

The two men had apparently been waiting in the dark next to an
apartment complex, according to a police report.

The suspects were last seen running away toward Laurel Street and
police are still following up on leads and analyzing evidence in their
investigation into the incident.

Anyone with information about the robbery is urged to contact the
San Mateo County Sheriff's office's investigations bureau or the anonymous
tip line at 1-800-547-2700.
