Man arrested for armed robbery in Tres Pinos
A man is in custody after law enforcement says he robbed the Tres Pinos Country Store in San Benito County.
After entering the store on April 19, Michael Huerta allegedly gestured that he had a gun and demanded money from the register.
Nobody was injured during the robbery.
Surveillance footage helped San Benito County Sheriff’s Deputies identify him as someone they had stopped a few weeks earlier.
Huerta was found the afternoon of April 20 and confessed during an interview.
He was booked into the San Benito County Jail and charged with armed robbery.
