Three people have been arrested after robbing CVS stores in Santa Rosa and Petaluma. On Thursday evening, suspects entered a CVS store in Petaluma and tried to steal drugs from the pharmacy. They were unsuccessful, and then headed to the CVS on Mendocino Avenue in Santa Rosa where they approached the pharmacy at the back of the store and indicated they had a gun in their waistbands. The suspects jumped over the counter and stole several medications before fleeing in a car driven by a third person. A responding police officer located the vehicle as it got onto southbound Highway 101 from Steele Lane, pulled the car over, and arrested all three suspects without incident.

The two suspects who entered the Santa Rosa store were juvenile males, ages 14 and 17. A gun was not located, and it unknown at this time if the suspects were armed at the time of the robbery. The getaway driver was identified as Robert Holloway, an 18-year-old Sacramento resident.
