Man robs Subway on Pellicano wearing pink dress, high heels: Deputies
EL PASO, Texas (KVIA) -- El Paso Sheriff deputies have arrested the man accused of robbing the Subway on Pellicano. Employees reported that the suspect, Manuel Reyes, 29, was wearing a pink dress, high heels, wig, and sunglasses.
The alleged armed robbery happened June 22, 2025 at approximately 7:25 PM at the Subway restaurant located on the 12500 block of Pellicano Drive in Far East El Paso.
