Armed Robbery at Which Wich on Orange Avenue

Last night at 9:40 p.m., Coronado Police received a 9-1-1 call of an armed robbery at Which Wich Sandwiches located at 926 Orange Avenue. Officers arrived on scene and found three employees inside the sandwich shop. The employees stated that they were closing up for the evening when two armed men entered through the back door, forced two of the employees to the ground, hitting one on the head, and ordered the third employee to hand over the cash. The suspects then exited through the back door and ran towards the alley. Patrol officers and SDPD’s helicopter ABEL searched for the suspects but were unable to locate the men.

Paramedics were called to the scene to evaluate the injured employee but the victim declined treatment. The suspects are being described as white male adults wearing dark gray hoodie sweatshirts with face masks.

Investigators are asking for the public’s assistance in locating any witnesses, or any business or homes that may have security footage in the area. If you have any information, please call Detective Sam Sellers at (619) 522-2648 or Crime Stoppers at 888-580-8477.
