SAPD Searching for Armed Fugitives In Convenience Store Robberies

SAN ANGELO, TX – The San Angelo Police Department is seeking the public’s help in identifying suspects involved in a series of convenience store robberies.

Just before 5:00 a.m. on Wednesday, an aggravated robbery took place at the Stripes located at 1821 North Bryant Boulevard. 

According to SAPD, two unidentified men entered the store. While one of the men shoplifted, the second man went behind the counter and stole money from the register while displaying a weapon. No employees were injured, and the suspects left the area in a red or maroon-colored SUV.

The first man was described as possibly Hispanic, medium build, with facial hair, bald, and wearing red shoes, blue jeans, and a black hooded-sweatshirt with light-colored writing. 

The second suspect was described as being possibly Hispanic, with a chinstrap style beard and neck tattoos and  wearing black pants, black shoes, a red baseball cap with a black brim, a light-colored shirt with thin horizontal stripes, and a dark hooded-vest with fur trim.

Later that morning, at approximately 6:15 a.m., a second aggravated robbery occurred at the 7-11 located at 2202 North Chadbourne Street. 

In this incident one man entered the store and lingered for some time before he stole money from the register while displaying a weapon. No employees were injured, but while reviewing surveillance video, police identified the suspect wearing the dark hooded fur-trimmed vest from the previous robbery.

SAPD investigators are asking the public for help identifying and locating these two criminals before they strike again. Anyone with information regarding the suspects’ identities and whereabouts, is asked to contact the San Angelo Police Department at (325) 659-8016.
