Man arrested after robbery outside Camarillo Denny's

A Ventura man was arrested early this morning after he allegedly beat and robbed another man outside a Denny's Restaurant in Camarillo, authorities said.

Ventura County Sheriff's deputies responded at 1:53 a.m. to a report of three men fighting outside the restaurant at 1659 E. Daily Drive, said Capt. Ross Bonfiglio.

When they arrived, deputies found an unidentified man with head injuries lying unconscious in the parking lot, Bonfiglio said.

Witnesses said one man had given $20 to the victim, who was intoxicated, and another man took the money back and beat the victim severely, the captain said.

The victim regained consciousness after deputies arrived. He was treated for head injuries at St. John's Regional Medical Center in Oxnard.

Based on witnesses' descriptions of the other two men involved in the incident, deputies located them in a car on the 400 block of Las Posas Road.

One of them, Daniel Carmona, 36, of Ventura, was arrested on suspicion of robbery, Bonfiglio said.
