Suspect in father-daughter robbery identified | KOMO News – Seattle, Washington | Local & Regional

Sherrifs deputies say they have identified a man suspected of robbing convenience store at gunpoint with his 9-year-old daughter at his side.

Kittitas County Undersheriff Clayton Myers said phone tips from people who saw the story on the news helped investigators identify the man as 42-year-old Robert Daniel Webb.

The robbery that prompted the investigation occurred at the AM/PM Mini Mart just off I-90 at exit 101 around 3 a.m. Tuesday.

Myers said the man believed to be Webb approached the counter, drew a gun and demanded money from the register. The clerk complied and the man then left with the little girl, without further incident.

    Damn, that kid looks terrified. What was he thinking when he brought her there?

  3. Jadik says:

    I’m gonna take a wild guess and say he wasn’t thinking.

    It’s Bonnie and Clyde, except she can’t drive the getaway car without a toddler car seat.

  12. mrmigu says:

    Leaving her alone in the car would have just been cruel

    I like the transaction detail on the video. Pretty cool.

  15. newglenn says:

    Brilliant! The clerk isn’t gonna do anything to endanger the child. She is, in fact, a hostage.

    #10 John Paradox wins.

  16. Buckwheat says:

    The real question is – in which states would the daughter also be charged as an accomplice as opposed to the victim/hostage that she really was?

  17. Rob says:

    #18, that would be the City of NY, where a car jacking victim was charged by the DA with aiding in the jackers attempted escape as she was driving the vehicle (mid nineties IIRC)
