Just hours after about 50 juveniles ransacked a 7-Eleven store in Pico-Robertson, another 7-

Eleven was robbed at gunpoint in a different L.A. neighborhood.

According to the Los Angeles Police Department, a call regarding a robbery at the

convenience store, located on Oxnard Street in Valley Glen, came in at 2:15 a.m. Saturday.

The suspect came in with a gun and took an unknown amount of money. He then fled the

area on foot before officers arrived on scene, an LAPD spokesperson said.

He was only described as a Hispanic male.

No store employees or customers were injured in the incident, and as of 7 a.m. Saturday,

the suspect had not been taken into custody.

No further information was available, and the investigation remains ongoing.

on bicycles ransacked a 7-Eleven in L.A.’s Pico-Robertson neighborhood.

It is not known how much merchandise was stolen or how much damage may have been caused.
