They were Sephora employees

Well I’m in a different state and mall..
I know dork just wanted you to see how lucky you are to have not been out here
Everyone needs to be vigilant, especially this time of year. Too many bad people who want to take your things, instead of working and getting their own!
But please…give people guns
You think that guy had a legal carry permit? I doubt it. Now on the other hand…had one of those women been armed, might be one less scumbag today
If the two robbery victims had guns then there would be two less victims and one dead robber. Win win.
Sure i cn see all this young girs carrying guns please!!!
Maggie Cordova why not? It’s common in other states
How sexist of you, Maggie.
They even let us vote now. It’s amazing all the cool things they are allowing girls to do nowadays.
My daughter carries.
Jenee Robin ahh :(
Omg that’s scary!
I know!!!
Bonnie Fortner Raitt
Wonderful :(
Riley Perez Kayla Taylor
oh good I’m about to go to work! wish me luck
I saw this luckily none of us were working that night lol
You guys need a taser or pepper spray to carry when you’re walking out ?
Or just ask the security guards to walk you out
There was bomb threats spreading around on social media for Southern California malls so I don’t want to be there in general lol
I have pepper spray always
Stephanie Perez this is what I was talking about?
Milan Cabrera did you see this

Ashley Schutzano

??? is right lol
The Mall employees receive no security walking to their cars at night. When something worse happens who is responsible then? Westfield? I’ll look to them if something happened to my kids.
Seems impossible to escort all mall employees to their vehicles.
Shaun, there isn’t any security and they can’t park close. Sometimes the lights are even shut off, I get not everyone can be escorted to their cars. The mall must take some type of responsibility for late night employees or something will happen and it won’t be good press.
If the employees don’t feel safe, maybe they should seek employment elsewhere
I work at Bath&Body and no one walks us to our cars. I’m so scared now.
I work here and I can tell u from experience that mall security has no interest in keeping anyone safe.
You look to young to have kids James Parker but if you had a daughter who had to close a store at the mall and walk to her car in the dark around 11pm unescorted and they can’t park close, you would think differently. Employers and the mall take no responsibility. Restaurants get fined a lot of money if employees park close. They keep tabs on that though.
James Parker that’s a pretty insensitive thing to say. This isn’t just a job for me. This is how I provide for my family. When I spoke to mall management about how unsafe it is to have 18 year old girls walk to their cars at 2 and 3 in the morning they blew me off and told me that we are just lucky we don’t have to shuttle in and park off premises. They are arrogant and don’t care about the people that work there. The only time we see mall security is when they are writing tickets to mall employees. It’s just a matter of time before someone actually gets hurt. I wonder then if anyone will care. Or if we will be told to “maybe seek employment elsewhere”.
As a former Westfield security guard, employee escorts at night are provided, given the employee makes the request. I’ve had an employee ask me to just watch them on camera until they got to their vehicle. Also nothing prevents any employee moving their vehicle closer to the front after the mall closes, just call security and let them know. Secondly the lights dont go off until way after the mall closes, I think 11 or midnight, and the go to 50% I believe. Finally overnight employees may park closer to the doors provided their vehicles is either gone or moved before the mall opens.
I work out on the patios and where us employees are suppose to park is far! And dark! They should have more lighting and more security out at that time.
Amy Chretien is this the same as your post?
Yes! I’d think they’d have cameras since it’s outside of a store but I guess not.
They do have cameras. Coz they followed me on the walking to Sephora to give me a parking ticket.
Oh of course Mel. When they need our $100 but not when it comes to making sure we are safe.
Right!? Westfield only cares about making a dollar- even if at someone else’s expense.
Karsyn Ann this must have been what you saw going on

I know I had mall security walk us out that night xoxox
I wonder if a CCW or a Gun Free Zone sign would’ve prevented this?
A ccw would have prevented it or it would have left the women not feeling terrified and being victims. I wonder if one or more is going to end up with ptsd. Pepper Spray, loud whistle, taser, might have helped. Praying the women heal emotionally after this ordeal.
That was my point.

Joyce did u hear about this
Omg no! But it is totally dangerous there, even walking with a friend there isn’t protection. I see comments about security in this thread, what would security do, they don’t carry! It’s a joke. When I lived in the AV deputies patrolled the mall, at least during holidays it would be great if they were staffed enough to have a strong presence there to deter the criminals.
The Sheriff’s do (or at least when I was security) have volunteer mounted officers that roam the parking lots during the day.
Yes it’s true I’ve seen cops at the mall parking lots elsewhere but not here un Valencia
Did SCVTV just learn about this, it happened Sat. night :(
I posted it on their page Sunday. But I never got a response. Idk if they even saw it. :/
Thanks for letting us know Synthia. We are very small staffed and didn’t see the message until today- sorry! We do the best we can.
I understand! I was just expressing some frustration with trying to get the story to anyone who has more reach and pull than I do. I’m glad you were able to share the news at all!
Please feel free to email me (Halie Cook) anytime you have a news tip at hcook@scvtv.com– I will see it a lot faster that way! ?
And that’s all the police are going to do. Guy successfully got away. Westfield is ridiculous when it comes to employee parking. The security will ticket you and the store you work for for parking to close. And no one will escort you out if you ask. It’s a joke. Those girls should sue Westfield
When I worked at the ivy I refused to park on the upper levels seeing as I got off work past 8pm and would walk alone to my car. Hell no! They ticketed me a few times but screw them, my life is more important
Isn’t it crazy?! Watch.. they will probably make a statement saying they always ensure the workers safety and walk them to their cars or something. Wonder if anything will change
I park wherever the hell I want. They told me I can call them if I want an escort but other than that I have never seen any late at night anywhere even when I search for one
Oh yeah ONE mall cop is gonna come walk everyone to their car?! Yeah right! And no one has time to sit around and wait
There’s more than one security officer working at once…
Not late at night. There are only a couple and they never show. I think it’s ridiculous how they spend show much energy on having the guards stalk employees instead of keeping people safe or actually enforcing the smoking locations, reporting to stores when they call and ask for a security walk through due to suspicious behavior, and things like that. It’s a joke and I told my closers I didn’t care where they parked because I’d rather they be safe than something like this.
Yeah I work at the mall too and they make us park all the way to the back. I open so I’m fortunate to go to my car during daylight when I get off. The mall security sucks ass I’m telling you. One time our donation box got stolen and the the person who did it passed by a security and they “tried” to catch him but they didn’t. I always see them just roaming around the mall with ease and we would need to literally call the security office just to get their attention when there’s ruckus going around the mall.
When I worked there I parked where ever I wanted especially if I got off at 2 or 3 am. I can’t even say how many times I called for an escort and they never showed up even after being threatened by an angry customer. And there’s only 2 or 3 working at night and 1 can’t leave the office
Don’t mess with Paul Blart mall cop
They stalk you and ticket you but will not come when you need them for a “real” issue. It’s a joke! They will even ticket your car if you aren’t working!
Also they towed my co workers car away! It cost over $300 to get the car back!
Marie Corona we were just there that night
??
But, but it’s a gun free zone!
The signs… They did nothing!
haha, right.

Rape! Armed robbery? Not so Awesome!! Junkies at the mall!
Great!
I got robbed at target in Valencia a year ago and they made a report. I talked w the detective twice.. that’s it. He never returned my calls. He told me he couldn’t see anything on targets surveillance cameras because they were so out dated. And target sent home their LP person earlier that day because he was sick. I told him hey I talked to my bank, try tried using my card here and here at this time so check out their cameras. Nothing. So… Good luck w catching the guy. I’m sure of they really wanted to they would. There are cameras everywhere, at the mall and surrounding businesses.
Yeah and it seems they didn’t even want to post this info., It was on KTLA 5 Morning News today. Awesome Town doesn’t want to expose what’s really going on here, thank goodness LA news stations .
That’s probably why kcal was here earlier too.
They better find him! They can certainly check the cameras to see that we park in the patios parking and see what store we work at! Ugh

Thank you, Irene!
The more reason to shop online.
That parking lot needs lights like a football field. It is way to dark. Especially someone with kids or employees leaving so late.
They make all employees park where there is basically NO lighting or they’ll fine your workplace.
Hi everyone! I live here in SCV and wanted to share what I have with you, I’ve also had an experience there myself recently. I am with a company called Damsel in Defense, and I equip women, men, & children with self defense tools. Pepper spray, stun guns, alarms, kubotans, etc. We happen to be having a 50% off sale that ends on the 15th of this month. I have a good sized order arriving tomorrow and can save you on shipping if you would like something from it, vs. ordering directly from my site. Please take a look at my site (www.ClassyDefense.com) and contact me if you have any questions or would like to equip yourself. I am happy to meet up with you locally to bring you your order. Thank you, and stay safe!
I looked at your site, did not see 50% discount? Thanks
Hi Kathy Plunkett-Bordonaro, the prices shown reflect the discount. They will go back to normal pricing on the 15th of this month.
thank you
You’re welcome!!

Omg I just read this and posted the article so ridiculous
If these 2 women had guns they wouldn’t have been robbed.
WHAT IS HAPPENING!!!!
Andrea
Pauline Pelagio unnie, have u heard of this?
No but I’m not surprised knowing how stupid the mall security is
Time to strap up! The police don’t do nothing and I’m sick of being scared. The next victim will be the guy trying to jack me!!!
Alex
Carry pepper spray!
Judi Ann you be careful!!!!!
Ryan Alfarero Rosa Montes de Oca
?
Terrifying right?? I was walking out to my car when I saw all the police start swarming the parking lot and the helicopters came flying!!!
What is going on with this town???
Awesome town strikes again! ?
Oh wow and we where there with the damily.
Omg…I’ve been disconnected….need to pay attention!
Del Toro scary!
Too think something like happened to my suegrita once at a mall. Scary
what! Y yo que voy sola. Want to be my shopping partner? LOL
Don’t be afraid we all need to stand up
Rafaela Serna We should all be careful since it’s really dark when we all leave
Omg this makes me so scared to work here
Jessica Gaffar Karen Bibo-Cozens
Savannah Benton read this and let the girls you work with know about this.
What makes me even more upset is Westfield makes it’s employees park in the DARKEST and FARTHEST part of the parking lot. If we don’t they fine the store we work at. Good job Westfield.
Fatima Cantu Sosa be careful!
Oooh ik nd it was from the macys employee parking :/
Christel Duran ?
People need to carrying pepper spray or tasers with the intent to use. This incident could happen anywhere & it does.
The mall employee parking requirements in Valencia are ridiculous. If you exit the mall by Red Robin it is always very dark. You have to park all the way out in the second lot. The security guards can give me a ticket every single day after this you will never find my car way out in the employee parking.
I was just there. Scary? Mike Enriquez
What the heck ?
Maria Salinas
Kristen Nolind Christensen Breeshea Hummitsch OMG yikes not okay!!
What!!!! Not ok! ?
Yikes is right! Ugh. Be safe!!
Oh wow! This is scary!!!
Elitta Pace Sorenson?
it was bound to catch up
Security sent these out today
I saw several posts that said if the girls had been carrying guns, the bad guy would have been the victim. Sorry, folks, but if the girls were not well trained, they would probably have been victims of something even worse!
More people are killed by their own guns than by someone else.
