Congress Heights on the Rise

Subway shop in Congress Heights robbed TWICE in 2 days! Please help ID suspects.



When I was going over the video I had to check twice to make sure I wasn't posting the same video but unfortunately it was actually the case that the Subway shop located in the Shops at Parklands was ROBBED TWICE IN TWO DAYS! The first robbery occurred on January 4th and this one happened on the 6th.  Both robberies involved holding the cashier up at gunpoint. This madness has to stop. Please review the footage. While the suspect had his face covered he was wearing some distinctive jeans. You can leave a tip anonymously, just please call if you know something. One of these days someone is going to lose their life. This is the type of senseless crime that gives Southeast a bad reputation. There are always other alternatives that pointing a gun at someone.
