Aberdeen Gas Station Robbed at Gunpoint

An undisclosed amount of cash was stolen at gunpoint Thursday from the Sunoco Gas Mart at the corner of Middleton Lane and Churchville Road, police said.

At approximately 1:30 p.m. a black male wearing black jeans, a black shirt, black cap and sunglasses entered the store and demanded money, said Police Spokesman Lt. Fred Budnick.

The suspect “displayed a handgun and announced a robbery,” Budnick said.

“The suspect fled the area on foot after receiving an undisclosed amount of cash,” Budnick said.

The Harford County Sheriff’s Office and a K-9 unit from the Mayland State Police assisted. But the suspect escaped, police said.

“No one was injured during the incident,” Budnick said.

Anyone with information regarding the armed robbery is asked to call the Aberdeen Police Department’s Criminal Investigation Section at 410-272-2121.
