YPD releases names of armed robbery suspects
Yuma police have released the names of three of the four suspects who were taken into custody on Wednesday and later arrested for allegedly robbing a convenience store at gunpoint.
Anthony Robert Duran, 21, Victor Dominguez, 19, and 21-year-old Gil Daniel Juarez have all been booked into the Yuma County Jail on armed robbery charges, as well as additional unrelated felony charges.
Duran’s bond has been set at a combined $135,000, while Dominguez is being held on $100,000 and Juarez for $200,000. All of the bonds are cash-only according to jail records.
The name of the fourth suspect is not being released because he is a juvenile, currently in custody at the Yuma County Juvenile Detention Center.
On Wednesday, Jan. 3 at 3:44 a.m., Yuma police officers responded to a report of an armed robbery at the Circle K, 637 E. 32nd Street.
Through the initial investigation, officers learned that two males entered the store and threatened the clerk with a hand gun and took an undisclosed amount of money.
The suspects then fled the scene at a high rate of speed down Arizona Avenue and were seen going to an apartment complex located in the 1900 block of South 2nd Avenue.
Duran, Dominguez, Juarez and the juvenile were later detained and subsequently arrested.
There have been no reported injuries in reference to this case. The case is still under investigation.
The Yuma Police Department encourages anyone with any information about this case to call 928-373-4700, or 78-CRIME at (928) 7827463 to remain anonymous.
