Fayetteville

police detectives are still following up on the city's two armed robberies

that occurred last week.

In fact, while

investigating the Wednesday holdup of the Shell gas station on north Glynn

Street, detectives found some cash that may have been from the robbery

of the Banks Crossing Kroger grocery store the previous Sunday.

The money was

near a broken plastic container. The masked man who took the money during

the Kroger incident left with the cash in plastic containers, according

to police.

Police have

also released a sketch of the alleged suspect in the Shell holdup.

Detectives

are also following up on other additional leads, according to Lt. Beverly

Trainor.

During Sunday's

robbery at the Kroger, which took place late at night, the masked man

left the store in a car driven by a second suspect. But police determined

they used a second getaway car and ditched the original vehicle behind

the former Kmart store at the shopping center.

The Wednesday

robbery at the Shell station occurred around 2:15 p.m. and the unmasked

perpetrator got away with the money on foot. Police conducted an extensive

search of the area with numerous officers and deputies joining the sheriff's

department's K-9 unit and helicopter.

Anyone with

information on the Shell robbery should call Det. Deb Chambers; information

on the Kroger robbery should be directed to Det. Bob Bautista.
