During the dates of 01/25/2020 and 01/29/2020, an armed robbery series occurred at three separate locations; 7-11, AM-PM and Chevron, within the city of Moreno Valley.  The suspect entered these establishments armed with a shotgun and demanded money.  From the onset, the Moreno Valley Station Robbery Burglary Suppression Team assumed the investigation.  During the next few weeks, deputies utilized several investigative techniques; including the Moreno Valley citywide camera system to develop investigative leads.  Through the diligent work of deputies assigned to the case, as well as the assistance of the public, a suspect, Francisco Martinez, was identified. On 03/27/2020, at 6:57 AM, Martinez was located in the 23000 block of Sunnymead Blvd., in the city of Moreno Valley.
