Several gas station robberies may be linked

BRODHEADSVILLE – Police say an armed robber who hit several gas stations in Monroe and Luzerne counties may be the same man responsible for all four robberies.

The spree began Saturday night at an Exxon station on Route 209 in Brodheadsville.  Surveillance photos show the suspect breaking into that station at about 9:30 p.m. 

The next robbery happened a short time later at an Exxon on Route 115 in nearby Blakeslee.  During that robbery, the suspect displayed a handgun. 

Two more robberies happened in in Luzerne County, also along Route 115. 

Suspect descriptions are similar in all four robberies.
