Posted on 5:14 PM by Unknown

Updated March 29, 2013: The Prince George’s County Police Department is investigating an armed robbery of a convenience store that occurred on March 29, 2013.

Shortly after 12:00 am, patrol officers responded to the 1400 block of Ritchie Road in Capitol Heights for a robbery.  The preliminary investigation suggests the same suspect as below entered a convenience store posing as a customer. He again chose a drink and approached the counter as if to pay.  Once the clerk opened the register, the suspect displayed a handgun and ordered the victim to back away. The suspect then removed the cash drawer and ran from the store.

Anyone with information about this case is asked to call the Prince George’s County Police Department’s Robbery Unit at (301) 772-4905.
