Police Ask For Public’s Help Finding Armed Robberies Suspects

CHARLOTTE, NC -- Charlotte police are asking for the public’s help in identifying suspects wanted in connection to two armed robberies over the weekend.

The first armed robbery occurred around 6:30 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 18, when a suspect, described as a black male around 25- to 30-years old, pulled a gun and demanded money at a 7-Eleven at 835 Clanton Road in west Charlotte. The suspect, who was wearing a black hoodie and dark jeans, grabbed the money and ran, according to Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police.

One day later, a similar crime scene unfolded at the Subway at 7008 East W.T. Harris Boulevard in east Charlotte, when a suspect pulled a gun and demanded money from the cash register. The suspect grabbed a restaurant employee during the robbery, but she was unharmed. He is described as a black male, about 6-foot tall with a thin build and last seen wearing a striped shirt, dark hoodie and light colored pants.

CMPD asks that anyone with information about these two cases contact Crime Stoppers at 704-334-1600.
