Columbia Exxon Robbed at Gunpoint, Police Seek Suspect Info

Authorities are asking for help identifying the men who robbed a Columbia gas station at gunpoint last month, police reported Wednesday.

Two men with their faces covered stole money and cigarettes from the Long Reach Exxon in the 6000 block of Foreland Garth, according to a report from the Howard County Police Department.

At 11:25 p.m. on Saturday, April 25, the pair went into the store and approached an employee, one suspect showing he had a gun, police said. The men demanded money from the clerk, who complied, according to police.

The pair left with cash and cigarettes, according to police, who have released the suspects’ photos and are in search of leads to determine who they are.
