"CASTRO VALLEY - It was the night before Christmas, and while many throughout the Bay Area might've been hanging their stockings with care, at least one man was apparently out to make a quick buck."
""I don't want to have to kill anyone on Christmas," he told them, according to police."
"Police are still working to get him arrested and charged. Two days after the robbery, on Boxing Day, police chased the suspect vehicle through Berkeley, but the driver got away, authorities said. Thus far, the man they believe to be responsible hasn't been charged, court records show."
At 10 p.m. on Christmas Eve, a masked man entered the Quickly tea cafe on the 20800 block of Redwood Road in Castro Valley armed with a gun. He told employees, "I don't want to have to kill anyone on Christmas," according to police. The man allegedly forced two employees to open the register and a safe in the back and ordered them to lie on the floor. He departed with about $400. Police pursued a suspect vehicle two days later through Berkeley on Boxing Day but the driver escaped. No charges have been filed yet against the person believed to be responsible.
