ATM Robbery Suspects
Arrested
Fremont
Police arrest three suspects in connection with the April 9th Bank of
America ATM robbery.
On
April 9, 2014 at approximately 1:05 a.m. a 67 year old adult victim was robbed
at gunpoint while using the Bank of America ATM located at 40820 Fremont Blvd.
While the victim was using the ATM, a carload of suspects drove up and
parked adjacent to where he was standing. The main suspect exited the
vehicle, pointed a handgun at the victim and demanded his wallet. The victim,
fearing he would be shot, threw his wallet to the suspect. The suspect
retrieved the wallet and the vehicle sped off. Approximately one hour
later two of the suspects used the victim’s credit cards at the 7-11 located at
46650 Mohave Dr in Fremont.
On
Tuesday, April 15, 2014, in an attempt to identify the suspects, the Fremont
Police Department’s Crimes Against Person(s) Unit released surveillance photos
and video on Nixle and through the use of our official social media channels.
Today,
during the early morning hours, an unrelated Fremont Police investigation
led to the identity of the suspects. Physical evidence, witness
statements, suspect confessions and other evidence tied these suspects and one
other suspect to the robbery. The Fremont Police Department Crimes
Against Persons, General Assignment and Street Crimes Unit’s all deployed to
actively work the case today. Following a search warrant that was served
at a residence on Farrol Ave in Union City, the following three persons were
arrested:
-
Prabhleen Singh - 22 year old, Fremont resident, suspect with the gun who
robbed the victim.
-
Manjot Dhillon - 24 year old, Union City resident, suspect who drove the
get-away vehicle.
-
Juvenile - a 17 year old male (suspect who also used the victim’s credit cards
at 7-11). Name and photo will not be released.
The
suspects were arrested on a variety of felony charges including robbery, elder
abuse, possession of stolen property and felon in possession of
ammunition. Singh and Dhillon were booked into the Fremont Jail.
The 17 year old juvenile suspect was booked into Juvenile Hall. The
vehicle used during the robbery, along with other items associated to the
crime, were also located and booked into evidence.
The
Fremont Police Department is still actively investigating this case.
Anyone who has knowledge of the suspects and/or crime is encouraged to contact
