Bonnie and Clyde but the Sweetwater Version

 

ABILENE, Texas — Three suspects were detained following an armed robbery at a game room in Sweetwater on Thursday morning.

The robbery occurred at Diamond Knights game room on the 500 block of Avenger Field Road just after 8:00 a.m.

Nolan County Sheriff David Warren confirmed that armed with a semi-automatic handgun, the suspects took an undisclosed amount of cash from the location before fleeing in a vehicle. Law enforcement issued a 'Be on the Lookout' alert for the vehicle after the robbery. The suspects were subsequently located at another game room in Sweetwater around 9:20 a.m. It remains unclear whether they were attempting to target this second location as well.

Investigators stated they do not believe any additional suspects are at large, and there is no perceived threat to the public at this time.

Two individuals wielding semi-automatic weapons took an undisclosed sum of money from a game room during an armed robbery in Sweetwater, Texas, around 8:00 a.m. The robbery was brief, and the suspects fled in a vehicle from the scene.

Nolan County Sheriff David Warren confirmed that the two robbers were later found at another game room in Sweetwater nearby around 9:20 a.m. Local law enforcement issued a "Be on the lookout" alert for the vehicle immediately following the initial robbery, leading to the arrest of the two suspects. Investigators are uncertain if the two intended to rob the game room at the second location as well, but they assert that no additional suspects are believed to be at large, and there is no apparent threat to the public at this time.
