Police in Menlo Park are trying to identify two suspects who robbed a 76 gas station Monday night.

Officers responded to reports of an armed robbery at a 76 at 710 Willow Road at around 8 p.m., according to the Menlo Park Police Department.

Two suspects wearing masks, one of them carrying a handgun, entered the gas station store and ordered the employees to give them the cash in the register. They complied, and the suspects left.

No one was injured during the robbery.

A witness told police that the suspects were seen running south on O’Keefe Street where they got into a red four-door car being driven by a third suspect.

The three left the area and were not located during a search conducted by Menlo Park and East Palo Alto police.

The suspects were both described as males in their late teens to early 20s, one of them around 5 feet 7 inches tall with a thin build, the second around 6 feet tall with a thin build. Both were seen wearing dark hoodies and dark pants.

Anyone with information regarding the case is asked to contact Menlo Park police at 650-330-6300.

  1. My friend used to live on E Okeefe way back when crack was the big thing. Another friend got shot in the face when someone tried to jack his car. That street leads right into crappy EPA, Ive seen police stop robberies by University Ave 101 onramp many times.

    Dont be shy, its ok to say “2 black males” or “2 hispanic males”, tell it like it is. You called the car red.

  2. As long as name calling is on the adjenda here, how about somebody who knows these daring daylight robbers give up their names?? You know the robbers are laughing and cackling about how they got away with it in front of their buddies. “Someone” knows. Besides scaring the clerk and probably taking a few years off her life from stress, these punks have just risked doing at least five years minimum in the pen for the meesly couple of hundred or so in chump change they netted…”Someone” stop them before they kill someone..
