Service Station Robbed by Gunman

An unidentified gunman held up a clerk at an Arco gas station Saturday night and escaped with an undisclosed amount of cash, authorities said.

The clerk, Riad (Mike) Kabbara, 22, told police the robber walked into the market of the gas station at 17502 Golden West St. in Huntington Beach at 10:35 p.m. and showed him a revolver before demanding money.

Kabbara complied with the demand and the robber fled east on Golden West Street on foot, Sgt. Brian Tidrick said.
