A security guard fired shots at three armed people during an attempted robbery Wednesday, Feb. 7 at a jewelry store in Fullerton.
The trio, wearing masks and possibly armed with handguns, exited a dark-colored sedan that had stopped in front of the jewelry store, located on the 1500 block of South Harbor Boulevard. A uniformed security guard employed by the store fired at the suspects as they approached, causing them to flee the scene, a preliminary investigation revealed.
Police responded to the scene around 12:08 p.m. and searched the area for possible suspects.
No suspects were in custody late Wednesday and it is unknown if any were struck by the gunfire, Sgt. Ryan O’Neil said.
No other injuries were reported.
