Follow Home Robbery:
11100 block Cashmere Street (RD 815). On 11/28/08, 2150 hours, the victim and witness son left his business and drove home. The victim parked his vehicle in the driveway. When he exited, he was hit in the back of the head with a possible handgun and ordered to the ground. One of the suspects went through the victim's pockets and took a large sum of money. Other property was removed from the vehicle. The suspects then fled on foot. West L.A. Robbery Detectives were called in to conduct follow-up on this case. West Hollywood Sheriffs had made an arrest of suspects for robbery in their city near the border of Beverly Hills at Sunset Blvd. and Doheny Drive. The suspects were in possession of a large amount of cash. It was later determined the suspects in the West Hollywood case were not the same suspects in the follow-home case. The West Hollywood suspects are possibly related to a business robbery that occurred in West L.A. on 11/26/08 at a Clothing Store on the 2800 S. Robertson Blvd.

Sadly, as the Follow Home robbery clearly shows, even the Westside is not immune from violent crime. I wonder if this could have been prevented if there was a greater LAPD patrol presence in the neighborhood?
