Bakersfield Police say their investigation led officers to a residence in the 1300 block of East 19th Street where officers located three subjects hiding in a bedroom.

Rudolph Gibson, age 19, Sean Ladia, age 20, and Dennis Washington, age 21, were arrested and subsequently booked into the Kern County Jail for robbery, assault with a deadly weapon, and various gang related charges.

Original story appears as follows: 

Two restaurant employees are hospitalized after they were shot during a robbery.  The robbery happened around 9:00 p.m. Thursday night at the Super Taco on East Truxtun Avenue.  Police say 3 men wearing dark clothes and masks came into the restaurant.  At least one of the men had a gun.

"They put the clerks on the ground took the money, shot the clerks, they then fled on foot," said Sgt. Lance O'nesky with the Bakersfield Police Department.

Each clerk was shot once - one in the shoulder, the other in the leg.  They were both taken to Kern Medical Center with non-life threatening injuries.

hvfrakko1- if my people had stayed in europe your people would starve to death. we are the ones that pay for your welfare money. you can riot, steal and murder all you want and it will still get you nowhere. i agree there is a small percentage of whites that are criminals but when you look at the percentage of colored folks that are criminals there is a HUGE difference. its funny you say if my ancestors had stayed in europe we would not have any of these problems-you are absolutely correct, we would be a self supporting, free society and africa would have ceased to exist a couple hundred years ago. without the "europeans" who would support you?

Rontruth STOP acting like EUROPEAN AMERICANS like you DON'T COMMIT CRIMES. Your ancestors were the BIGGEST THIEVES in the history of mankind and YOU and other HICKS are STILL benefiting from a corrupt system. If you ancestors had stayed in Europe where they belong we would NOT have all these problems...

As a huge fan of Super Taco I believe these jerks deserve the death penalty. Well I will pray that those injured workers who are always so nice and provide an excellent product recover fully and hope the sodomy these criminals receive is quite unpleasant.

rontruth, you hit that nail on the head! And jodeno, you wonder why they shot the worker after they had the money? It's because they are gang members and are basically animals.

They already had the money, what was the point of shooting the workers? I hate punks that think they're bad because they know how to fire a gun. Put the gun down and let's see how tough you are. But you can't because you're weak and all you know how to do is pull a trigger.

let me guess.....the suspects were three white males? probably not, because if they were white it would have be the headline for this story. whenever the description leaves out the race it is always black.
