Some crooks went high end Saturday and robbed a Trader Joe's in Westchester at gunpoint.
Cops are on the hunt Sunday for four young men who went into the Trader Joe's at 8645 S. Sepulveda just before closing and held up the manager.
Police said the four suspects -- who ranged in age from 18 to 22 -- entered the store and approached the manager at a cash register, according to police sergeant Marc Reina of the Pacific Station.
One of the men produced a handgun and demanded money, he said.
No one was hurt in the incident, Reina said.
The suspects reportedly got into a vehicle and drove away, he said, but not before leaving the store with a substansial amount of cash.
Surveillance video may have captured images of the suspects, Newsreel Video reported.
