DETAILS FROM THE SACRAMENTO POLICE DEPARTMENT

On November 6, 2021 at approximately 10:13 p.m. Sacramento Police Department patrol officers responded to a report of a robbery that was occurring in an apartment located in the 2200 block of River Plaza Drive.

The occupants of the apartment were having a small gathering of people when two suspects entered and began the robbery. They were reported to have been armed with firearms. Officers arrived on scene while the suspects were still inside of the apartment. As officers began to approach the apartment one suspect fled from the apartment and was immediately taken into custody by officers. The second suspect was able to gain access into an adjoining apartment that was also occupied. The occupants of both apartments were able to escape to awaiting officers. The occupants of the original apartment reported some minor injuries from the robbery.

The second suspect eventually made his way into the attic area of the apartment building. SWAT officers and crisis negotiators responded to assist with the incident. The suspect eventually fled from the apartment building on foot and was taken into custody by officers.

The investigation remains ongoing. At this time officers have recovered a duffle bag that one suspect discarded which contained stolen items including narcotics. A replica firearm has also been recovered. Based on the preliminary investigation it appears that the robbery was an isolated incident.

The two suspects have been identified as 40-year-old Anthony Hill and 33-year-old Gary Bachelor. Hill and Bachelor have been booked at the Sacramento County Main Jail on multiple felony charges including, robbery, false imprisonment, assault with a deadly weapon and burglary.
