Suspect in food truck robbery robbed in South Sacramento

"During that process, apparently someone who witnessed it saw that robber running and robbed him at Stockton and 65th."

SACRAMENTO COUNTY, Calif — The suspect in a food truck robbery was jumped by people who ended up robbing him, the Sacramento County Sheriff's Office said.

Deputies responded to the reported robbery at Stockton Boulevard and Lindale Drive around 6:15 p.m. 

Sgt. Amar Gandhi, spokesperson for the sheriff's office, said the suspect robbed the food truck and took off with cash, but didn't end up getting far.

"During that process, apparently someone who witnessed it saw that robber running and robbed him at Stockton and 65th," said Sgt. Gandhi.

The initial suspect, later identified as 24-year-old Francisco Castro, was left with some minor injuries after being jumped by what Gandhi said was about two or three people, who ultimately left with the cash. 

Castro was arrested for robbery and is scheduled to appear in court Tuesday afternoon.
