Pocket Knife-Wielding Robbers Strike

Two men, one armed with a pocket knife, held up a Freedom Boulevard market on Tuesday afternoon, Watsonville police reported.

The robbers brandished a knife at the Azteca Market clerk and demanded cash around 2:20 p.m. The clerk turned over an undisclosed amount of money and the robbers fled, police said.

The robbers were last seen running south on Freedom. Police flooded the area, but didn't locate the men. One was described as a heavy-set man in his late 20s; the other was a skinny teenager.
