PALM DESERT – Gang Task Force Officers located documented criminal street gang member Robert “Lil Rob” Cruz, 40 of Coachella, as he was making a delivery at a quarter past noon on 10/28/2021.
Wanted on a $1 Million Arrest Warrant for Assault with a Deadly Weapon and Witness Intimidation – Cruz had managed to evade capture since June of 2021, when the warrant was issued for his arrest.
And there he was, in the light of day, delivering furniture to a residence located in the 49000 block of Highway 74 in Palm Desert. On the move, employed by a local furniture store as their delivery man – he managed to evade capture while making a living on-the-run.
While Cruz was delivered excellent Gang Task Force Arrest-Warrant service, and taken into custody without incident – the furnishings that await him in Indio’s John Benoit Detention Center are probably not as well-appointed.
