Armed Gas Station Robber Strikes Again in Nassau

Nassau Police are searching for a man who robbed a Levittown gas station at gunpoint Wednesday night — the second such robbery in the area this week.

According to detectives, at 10:40 p.m., a man armed with a silver handgun entered Ultra gas station, located at 3300 Hempstead Turnpike, approached the clerk and demanded money. The clerk complied, and the robber fled on foot westbound on Hempstead Turnpike with an undisclosed amount of cash. There were no customers present in the store at the time of the robbery, and no injuries were reported.

The man is approximately 6 feet, 2 inches tall, average build, 190 pounds, wearing a black hooded sweatshirt, black leather pants, dark black sunglasses, black cap, white gloves and a dark bandanna covering his face.
