Two Woodland residents were arrested Friday after what police say was an apparent armed robbery at the city’s Target store, capped off by a traffic stop on a rideshare car near the In‑N‑Out. Officers said they were called around 4:10 p.m., later recovering a pellet gun that looked like a real handgun. The suspects, 23-year-old Jordan Woolard and 30-year-old Carina Diaz, both from Woodland, were booked into the Yolo County Jail on suspicion of robbery and conspiracy.
According to ABC10, Woodland police said Woolard allegedly brandished what appeared to be a firearm inside the Target before he and Diaz left in a rideshare. Officers caught up with the vehicle near the In‑N‑Out, where investigators later found a pellet-style weapon that police say closely resembled a handgun.
