Several suspects detained after man robbed in La Quinta

Sheriff’s deputies detained several suspects Friday in connection with the morning robbery of a man in La Quinta. It happened about 9:45 a.m. in the 78000 block of Naples Drive, when a man was approached by several suspects who took his belongings, according to sheriff’s deputies.

The victim was not injured during the robbery and it was unclear whether any of the suspects were armed.

At about 11 a.m., a sheriff’s spokesman said that deputies, along with Indio police, “stopped a vehicle that is possibly involved in the area of Fred Waring Drive and Jefferson Street” and detained “multiple passengers in the vehicle.”

Despite the detained suspects, the investigation remained active and ongoing Friday afternoon.
