LOS ANGELES (AP) — Authorities have arrested two suspects in connection with a series of deadly robberies at Southern California 7-Eleven stores. They also linked the men to additional crimes in the region. Two people were killed and three wounded during a five-hour spate of armed robberies at six 7-Elevens and a doughnut shop early Monday in San Bernardino, Orange and Riverside counties. Authorities on Friday announced that detectives have also connected the two suspects to a fatal shooting in Los Angeles on July 9. Orange County prosecutors expect to file murder, attempted murder and robbery charges as soon as Monday.
