ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) – A couple is accused of terrorizing three different Blake’s Lotaburger locations and a dispensary in Albuquerque over the span of four months, threatening to rob each place at gunpoint before making off with thousands in cash.

The first time police said Robert Jaramillo, 47, and Jacqueline Smith, 43, were picked up on camera was at the La Mota Dispensary in the Near North Valley on March 13. Security images show a woman holding the door open for a man who proceeded to threaten the employee at the register with a silver revolver, before saying: “Give me all of the money in the register, or I will shoot her.” They made off with $600 in cash.

On June 3, police responded to a domestic violence incident involving Smith and Jaramillo. Police claimed he was seemingly wearing the same glasses as the one caught on camera at the dispensary. Police also noted his BMW and license plate.
