Clark County Sheriff's Office Seeks Public's Help in Identifying Armed Robbery Suspect (Photo)

On November 6th, 2024, at 5:20 p.m., Clark County Sheriff’s Office (CCSO) Deputies were dispatched to a report of a robbery that occurred during the sale of a cell phone. The victim told deputies he had communicated with a buyer online and then arranged to meet in person for the transaction. 

Three suspects arrived in a blue Dodge Durango and met the victim at an apartment complex in the Salmon Creek area. One of the suspects took a cell phone from the victim before pointing a gun at his head and pistol-whipping him. The suspect was armed with a semi-automatic pistol with an extended magazine.  

Deputies later located and arrested two of the suspects, 18-year-old Howard Osawa and 19-year-old Va’Zjahn Willis, on robbery and trafficking stolen property charges. Investigators also recovered the vehicle and firearm used in the robbery. 

A third suspect remains unidentified. He is described as a Hispanic or Pacific Islander male with long hair in a ponytail, approximately 5’10”-6’2” tall, with a large build.  He was wearing a light-colored Champion hooded sweatshirt.  Please see the attached pictures. 

Detectives believe this group has committed several similar robberies and thefts in the past month, in which they communicated online with victims, met with them in person, and then robbed them. CCSO Detectives are working with other law enforcement agencies to bring charges in those cases.  

If you have information about the identity of the unidentified suspect in this robbery, please contact CCSO Detective Elijah Page at Elijah.page@clark.wa.gov.
