From Chelsea Phua:
Roseville police are looking for two men who robbed U-Haul employees at gunpoint earlier this month - even forcing one of the victims to wait on a customer before the bandits fled.
Police said the suspects approached an employee in the vehicle yard of the truck-rental business in the 100 block of Wills Road at 7 p.m. on Jan. 6.
They pointed at gun at him and ordered him back to the office, where they threatened a second employee. During the robbery, a customer came in and the suspects directed one of the employees out to the main office to help the customer.
After the customer left, the suspects took the employees outside and locked them inside the rear of a truck.
The armed robbers took less than $500 in cash, employees' personal property and a U-Haul truck that was recovered later in Citrus Heights.
Both suspects are described as Hispanic men in their 20s. One is 5-feet-8, 160 pounds and thin build. He was wearing a maroon sweatshirt with white writing, blue jeans dark hat, a Texas A&M fan mask (photo left), gloves and was carrying a black revolver.
The other suspect is 5-feet-6, 200 pounds and large build. He was wearing black clothing, black ski mask, Mechanix gloves and was carrying a black stun-gun device.
Anyone with information is asked to call Roseville Crimestoppers at 916-783-7867. Callers may remain anonymous and are eligible for a reward of up to $1,000.
