Murder and Robbery at the North Point Inn

Unidentified men murdered a cook at The North Point Inn during a robbery on Sunday.

The robbery took place shortly after 9am while Nina Cortez, the restaurants bookkeeper was counting cash and receipts from the safe in her office.

A man wearing a blue plaid button down shirt and blue tennis shoes, with a floral scarf tied cowboy style across the bottom portion of his face, came into the room holding a knife. As she started kicking and screaming, falling off her chair to the floor, the man reached across her desk and grabbed $130 dollars in $5 dollar bills according to Nina.

The bookkeeper then heard someone else say, “Get that money out of there.” But she had already locked the door. Moments later the police had arrived, “I went into the hallway with police and saw blood on a door in the reception area. It was awful. There was blood on the walls and the floor. Kevin was lying on the floor, dead. He had a large knife wound in his chest and another on one hand.”


Police are looking for the two men, who may have been parked in an unidentified vehicle that was seen in the parking lot of the restaurant just before the robbery.
