The Bakersfield Police Department is asking for the community’s assistance in identifying and locating two suspects wanted for robbery.

On May 24, 2017 at 9:14 a.m., two suspects entered the City Food Market located at 900 Dr. Martin Luther King Junior Boulevard near California Avenue and selected several items.

Suspect 1: Black male 18-20 years of age, short black hair, wearing a black shirt, and black jeans

Suspect 2: Black male 18-20 years of age, short black hair, wearing a blue and white collared shirt, and blue jean shorts
