Virginia Beach Police are asking for the public’s help identifying suspects involved in two armed robberies that occurred at 7-Eleven convenience stores on Sunday.
The first offense occurred at approximately 11:00 p.m. at the 7-Eleven located at 4961 Euclid Road. The second offense occurred a short time later just after midnight at a 7-Eleven located at 1900 Diamond Springs Road.
Police say two heavy-set females entered the store armed with handguns and robbed the store of an undisclosed amount of money. Both appeared to be in their 20s with long braids, and were wearing pink scarves over their faces, dressed in dark pants. One of the women had on a white/black sweater and the other had on a blue sweater. Both appeared to be wearing gloves.
After the robbery, the women left the area in a newer black four-door vehicle.
The same two suspects then robbed the other 7-Eleven at gunpoint, again taking an undisclosed amount of money.
They also robbed a homeless man who was outside of the store.
This time, they were seen running north from the store.
Anyone with information is asked to call
Detective M.S. Flynn with the Virginia Beach Police Department Robbery Squad at 757-385-4101.
