Euclid police searching for suspects in two convenient store robberies

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Euclid Police Dept.'s Detective Bureau at (216) 289-8505.

Euclid police are searching for multiple suspects in two separate convenient store robberies that took place on consecutive days.

Authorities say the first robbery took place Monday night around 9:15 p.m., when man walked into the Convenient Food Mart on Euclid Ave. with a black, semi-automatic handgun and demanded money. He obtained an unknown amount of cash before fleeing. No one was injured.

The suspect is described as being in his late teens to early 20s, at 5 feet 6 inches tall with a thin build.

Just one day after the Euclid Ave. incident, another robbery took place, this time at the Convenient Food Mart on Babbitt Road. Officials say two young men entered the store about 10 minutes before midnight and held both female employees at gunpoint behind the counter. The two took an undisclosed amount of cash before fleeing the scene on foot. The workers were not injured.

The suspects are described as possibly being in their late teens and around 5-foot-6 with thin builds. Both wore dark clothing with masks, gloves, and hooded sweatshirts.

Additionally, the weapon used in the Tuesday robbery is described as a black, semi-automatic handgun, much like the one used in the previous robbery. It is unknown at this time if the two incidents are related.
