Clovis police are looking for people who may have been robbed when they used escort services offered through two websites in the past two months.
Police said they have seven confirmed cases of people being robbed when they contacted classifieds.myredbook.com and backpage.com at 275 W. Alamos Ave. from late October through Dec. 27. Many victims said they were robbed at gunpoint.
Last week, officers arrested three people -- two 19-year-old men and a 17-year-old girl -- at the West Alamos address.
Detectives said the girl spoke to potential "customers" on the phone and lured them to the home, where they were robbed of money and cell phones. Some of the items were recovered at the residence. A handgun also was found.
Anyone with information can call Clovis police at (559) 324-2800.
