LANCASTER, Calif. (AP) - An 80-year-old man who was beaten and robbed inside a Southern California grocery store bathroom has died, according to his family.
Roberto Flores-Lopez was found with injuries to his face and head in the men’s room at Superior Grocers in Lancaster on July 8. He’d also suffered several broken ribs.
KABC-TV reported Flores-Lopez died early Wednesday. A cause of death wasn’t immediately given.
Days after the attack Los Angeles County Sheriff’s detectives arrested Damaris Wade, 22, and Tamika White, 33.
