BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. - The 911 COVID Testing site in Beverly Hills was reportedly robbed Wednesday morning.
A safe with between $4,000 and $5,000 was stolen from the site at 9900 Santa Monica Blvd., said Steve Farzam, the chief operating officer for 911 COVID.
"It's very unfortunate during these challenging times a person would go to these lengths. It's a sad day for us. At least no one was hurt," Farzam said.
