‘Newer' Red Corvette Used in North County Robbery: SDPD

The man wanted for robbing a North County gas station Sunday drove away from the crime scene in a “newer red Corvette,” San Diego Police said.

The suspect wore a blue bandana over his face with a black T-shirt, blue jeans and black shoes when he entered the Chevron gas station on Rancho Carmel Drive. The station is located just east of Interstate 15 and south of Carmel Mountain Road.

He was described as 5-feet, 11-inches tall with a thin build and a short, “buzz” haircut.

The robbery took place just before 9:30 p.m. and the suspect drove away from the gas station in the red Corvette.
