A street vendor was attacked and robbed last night by two men in Watsonville. The 21-year-old victim was vending food in the area of Davis and Carey Avenue, when he was approached from behind by two suspects, also in their early 20’s. One of the men brandished a knife at the victim, while the other held a gun. The two suspects demanded money, and fled with an undisclosed amount of cash. The suspects headed southbound on Freedom Boulevard and disappeared. The victim sustained a minor cut to his nose after being slashed at by one of the assailants. He refused medical care at the scene. Watsonville Police have not yet located the suspects, but investigations are ongoing.
