Valley Village:  Detectives from the Los Angeles Police Department’s Robbery-Homicide Division are seeking the public’s help in identifying the suspect(s) involved in a follow home robbery.

On November 27, 2021, at around 1:30 a.m., the victims were being dropped off by a rideshare service near the 4800 block of Whitsett Avenue after spending the evening at a nightclub in Hollywood.  Four male Black suspects, in their early twenties, surrounded the victims.  The suspects pointed handguns at them and demanded their jewelry.  The victims complied.
