Stickup at New Lenox 7-Eleven

A gunman held up the New Lenox 7-Eleven late Wednesday.

A police officer was sent to the East Maple Street convenience store shortly after 11:30 p.m. to investigate the armed robbery.

“The complainant advised that an unknown male white in his 50s, wearing a Carhart jacket and a scarf over his face, displayed a gun and demanded money from the register,” police said. “The attendant gave the subject the money in the register and he then left.”

The same 7-Eleven was robbed in September.
