Three suspected pimps were arrested after they allegedly stole a man’s phone during a transaction in San Bruno on Monday, police said Thursday.
The three men were allegedly forcing a 17-year-old girl found in the car with them into prostitution, police said. Officers stopped them after they fled from the robbery.
The robbery victim flagged down police at 11:09 p.m. Monday near the corner of Commodore Drive and El Camino Real. He pointed out a blue sedan fleeing the area and said the occupants had stolen his cellphone, police said.
Police discovered the cellphone was taken during a prostitution transaction. When they stopped the blue sedan, they concluded three men inside had been pimping the 17-year-old girl. The men were arrested on suspicion of human trafficking, pimping, pandering, conspiracy and robbery. They were identified as Dominic Sears, a 20-year-old Antioch resident, Dylan Coney Jones, a 19-year-old Pittsburg resident, and Tristan Love, a 20-year-old Vacaville resident.
All three were booked into San Mateo County Jail.
Anyone with information about the case has been asked to call San Bruno police at (650) 616-7100.
