Hamilton Township Police are investigating another armed holdup that occurred on Tuesday at the Gulf gas station on the corner of Chambers Street and Liberty Street, that appears to be connected to the recent armed robberies of two area 7-11 stores.
At about 3:15 a.m. Tuesday, two suspects, one carrying a gun entered Gulf Gas Station on the 1100 block of Chambers Street and demanded money, Lt. Michael Kelvy of the Hamilton Police said in a statement.
Hamilton police said the men wore masks, gloves and hooded sweatshirts in each robbery. In the second robbery, one of the suspects wore a True Religion-brand sweatshirt with a gold “U” on the front left breast and had a gold Buddha on the back – which also says “True Religion” in gold letters.
In Tuesday morning’s holdup, one robber, between the ages of 20 to 25 years old, wore a sweatshirt with the same description, black pants, and a ski mask. He was armed with a handgun.
The second suspect, Kelvy said, appeared to be 17 to 20 years old, and wore a black leather jacket, black hooded sweatshirt, black pants, ski mask and black gloves.
The robbers fled on foot on Chambers Street toward Cedar Lane, and remain at large.
Anyone with information about the incidents is encouraged to contact Detective Frank Burger at 609-581-4010 or the Hamilton Police Crime Tip Hotline at 609-581-4008.
