Police have arrested two people for investigation of the murder of an off-duty Customs and Border Protection employee who came upon a robbery in progress at a row of ATMs in Los Angeles.
The arrests of the pair, both in their early 20s, followed numerous tips from the community and use of search warrants, the Police Department said in a statement Friday.
The victim, Mylus Mondy, walked up to an ATM about 11:30 p.m. Sunday on La Cienega Westway, unaware that a robbery was occurring. The assailant demanded money from Mondy, struck him on the head and pointed a gun at him, police said.
Mondy ran but was pursued and shot. He died Monday at a hospital.
