Petaluma Police search for suspect in Wednesday afternoon robbery

Petaluma Police are searching for a suspect who robbed the Lucky’s Supermarket on Lakeville Street Wednesday afternoon.

At approximately 1:45 pm on March 25, a male adult entered the Lucky’s store at 939 Lakeville St. and walked over to the pharmacy.

According to police, the suspect told the pharmacist that he had a gun and demanded medication. The suspect did not display a firearm, nor did he get behind the pharmacy counter. He was given the medication, and he left the store.

During the robbery the suspect attempted to hide his face with his t-shirt and the ball cap he was wearing.

The suspect wore a camouflage patterned baseball cap, a black t-shirt, a jacket that appeared to be blue denim with gray sleeves (or possibly a blue denim vest over a sweatshirt), and khaki pants. It is unknown if the suspect had access to a vehicle.

In addition to this case, the investigation continues into two other robberies that occurred earlier in the day under similar circumstances (the first at 5:28 am at Quick Stop, 1510 E. Washington St. and the second at the Valero gas station at 910 Baywood Drive).

All three cases are being examined for commonalities.

Anyone with information on these cases is asked to contact Detective Nick McGowan at 707-778-4372.
