MANCHESTER, NH — Manchester Police responded to 414 Belmont St. for an armed robbery on Saturday July 23. The incident took place approximately 8:10 p.m. at Angel Appliances.
The store owner, Felix Soto, 45, along with two friends, Yoquin Sosa, 37, and Daniel Calo, 56, were inside the store when three armed men entered the store brandishing handguns. Soto told police a Hispanic man entered the store first, followed by two African-American males. The three men were armed with handguns while the Hispanic male ordered the store owner and his friends into the restroom. The Hispanic male removed cash from the register drawer before taking Soto’s wallet and cell phone. The Hispanic male also ordered Calo to relinquish his cell phone and wallet before he forced him into the restroom with both Soto and Sosa.
The two African-American males did not speak during the robbery. All three men were described as wearing long-sleeved dark-colored clothing. The victims were ordered to look down toward the ground so they were unable to provide additional physical descriptors.
