HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. (AP) - Police in Southern California have obtained arrest warrants for 13 people who investigators say got off a party bus and stormed a 7-Eleven, robbing the store and assaulting a clerk.

Huntington Beach Officer Jennifer Marlatt says the suspects in the Jan. 7 incident belong to a Los Angeles-based street gang.

The Orange County Register reported Wednesday (https://bit.ly/2nHtpid) that detectives have already arrested 11 other people on various offenses, including weapons violations, in connection with the robbery.

Officials said at the time that seven loaded handguns were found on the party bus, which held a total of 80 passengers.

At least 30 of the passengers ran through the 7-Eleven and some began stealing items and assaulting the clerk when he intervened.

Eventually, the group got back onto the bus, which was stopped by police a short distance later.
