The Elk Grove Police Department is asking for the community’s help in identifying the suspects involved in an armed robbery.

A forensic sketch artist has developed a composite sketch (photo below) of the armed suspect who was responsible for the April 6, 2012 robbery at the UPS Store (4801 Laguna Boulevard). During the robbery, an unidentified suspect entered the UPS Store and confronted a UPS driver.
