BEVERLY HILLS—Officers with the Beverly Hills Police Department reportedly searched the 200 block of South Hamilton Drive for an armed robbery suspect on Tuesday, June 6, as first reported via the Citizen App.  

At around 8:30 p.m., the BHPD responded to calls about a male suspect who was jumping off roofs onto apartment balconies, confronting the residents and robbing them. According to reports, the male suspect robbed a man of his wristwatch and robbed a female on the third floor of an apartment building. 

A roadblock was established – and police were reportedly canvassing the area with dogs – in order to keep the suspect from fleeing. Individuals were on lockdown in the region and not allowed to leave or enter.
