Authorities Say Same Man May Be Respnosible For Two Armed Robberies

By Newsroom

Early Wednesday morning, officers with the Eureka Police Department
responded to a gas station on the 1700 block of 4th Street for the report of an armed
robbery that had just occurred. The suspect was last seen walking through the alley to the
rear of the business. Officers searched the vicinity but were unable to locate the suspect.
Upon review of surveillance, it was determined the suspect entered the business armed
with a knife and pipe and immediately attacked an employee. The suspect then fled on
foot with lottery tickets. The employee was not injured during the attack. From the
surveillance, officers were able to identify the suspect as Nicholas Savieo (32 of Eureka).
At about 3:40 a.m., officers responded to a gas station on the 1000 block of Broadway for
an additional robbery. A male suspect entered the store with a knife attached to a stick
and demanded money. The suspect took the employee’s keys and fled the scene in the
employee’s vehicle, a white 1999 Nissan Pathfinder, CA license plate #4YUX106. The
suspect’s weapon and description matched the earlier description of Savieo, however; the
identity of the second robbery suspect has not been confirmed.
