Police seek help finding would-be armed robber

By City News Service

GLENDALE — Glendale police asked for the public’s help Tuesday in
finding a would-be bandit who fired at a 51-year-old man while they
were struggling over the gun.

The intended victim had just returned home from shopping about 9 p.m.
April 14, in the 900 block of Patterson Avenue, when a gunman walked
up and demanded the resident’s wallet, Glendale police Officer
Leticia Chang said. A struggle ensued, and the intended victim
managed to get the gun from the would-be robber, who ran to a
dark-color car and fled with two other people.

The suspect was described as a slender Armenian, about 5 feet 6
inches tall with short black hair, wearing a white baggy jersey-type
shirt with a logo on the front, white shorts and white tennis shoes.

Anyone with more information about the robbery attempt is asked to
call Glendale detectives at (818) 548-3987 or the department’s main
number, (818) 548-4840. Anonymous calls can be made to (818)
506-STOP.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
