Authorities said officers from the Barstow Police Department arrived at the electric vehicle charging station behind the restaurant around 11:54 p.m. Jan. 21 after a 911 call from the victim, who reported that he was robbed at gunpoint by two men at the charging station. The victim reported that the suspects approached him while he was charging his vehicle and that one of the suspects pointed a handgun at him and forced him out of his car. The victim reported that the suspects robbed him of his personal jewelry, credit cards and other property. The suspects also stole the victim’s 2014 Tesla — a high-end electric car — and drove off in it. The victim ran from the area to a local business and called 911. Several officers responded, contacted the victim at the scene and began checking the area for his vehicle and the suspects. Police officers found the victim’s Tesla crashed into a metal barrier in front of one of the gas pumps at an Arco station down the road, and the suspects had fled from the area. Authorities arrived and began searching the victim’s vehicle for evidence, including fingerprints. Suspect fingerprints were located and sent to the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department for identification. An examiner identified the prints and connected them to Anthony Eugene Lott Jr., of Victorville. It was learned that Lott Jr. is currently on parole for burglary. Further investigation led police to a second suspect, Eric Anthony Lemus, a former resident of Barstow who currently resides in Apple Valley and is on felony probation. On Friday, authorities said Barstow Police detectives traveled to Adelanto, Victorville and Apple Valley and searched for Lott Jr. and Lemus at several locations. Neither of the subjects have been located. It is believed that police officers may have located the gun used in the robbery, but authorities said the subjects should still be considered armed and dangerous. The victim positively identified Lott Jr. and Lemus as the two robbery suspects from photographic line-ups. Barstow Police officers and detectives are actively searching for Lott Jr. and Lemus. Anyone with information regarding the whereabouts of the suspects is urged to call the Barstow Police Department at 760-256-2211.
