The first incident took place on December 28 around 2:30 a.m. at the Amstar gas station at 9114 West Silver Spring. The suspect used a piece of blacktop to break a front window of the business, then crawled inside. He got some items from the store before leaving on foot.
The suspect is described as a black make in his later 20’s with a medium complexion and weighing about 170 pounds. He was wearing a red and white tassel hat, a white t-shirt underneath a black hooded sweartshirt, black sweatpants, black tennis shoes and an over-sized black backpack.
The second incident took place on January 2 just after 7 p.m. at Steve’s Liquor Store at 6213 West Appleton. The suspect went inside and demanded money from the register, then fled the store.
He is described as a black male in his 40’s with a medium complexion, standing about five-foot five-inches tall and weighting about 160 pounds. He was wearing a black rimmed baseball cap, a Gerry Brand black winter jacket with a hood, a white/gray checkered button up shirt, blue jeans, black shoes, and gold rimmed sunglasses.
