A male victim sitting at a Moreno Valley bus stop was robbed Saturday by two suspects, including one armed with a handgun.

The robbery was reported at 9:20 a.m. in the 21400 block of Box Springs Road, said Riverside County sheriff’s Sgt. Marcos Acosta.

The suspects approached the male and demanded his property, Acosta said. They then fled in a vehicle.

It was the second armed robbery within 12 hours in Moreno Valley involving two suspects.

A business in the 27000 block of Eucalyptus Avenue was held up around 9:55 p.m. Friday by two men, one armed with a gun, sheriff’s officials said. They fled in a vehicle after taking an undisclosed amount of cash.

Anyone with information was asked to call Dep. F. Mireles at the Moreno Valley Sheriff’s Station at 951-486-6700.
