PASO ROBLES, Calif. — Police in Paso Robles arrested a man, who held a family at gunpoint in May, for armed robbery, according to the Paso Robles Police Department.
On June 2nd, Paso Robles detectives located Leonel Herrejon Sanchez — four hours away — in the city of Rohnert Park in the 7600 Block of Camino Colegio.
The 33-year-old was the second suspect arrested in connection to the armed robbery in May, says PRPD.
