FRANKLIN COUNTY -- Robbers are targeting Speedway convenience stores on Franklin County's west side.
Two locations were robbed within days of each other, by two separate criminals.
A Speedway at 4555 W. Broad St. was robbed October 31, by a man claiming to have a gun.
The suspect, is described as a white male, 5'9" to 6'00", tall, thin build, wearing a black hoodie, dark pants, and white tennis shoes, and a white hat underneath the hoodie.
The same Speedway was held up a few days later by a robber pointing a screwdriver at a clerk.
He was wearing a Grey hoodie, and a black mask over his face.
The suspect ordered the clerk to get down on the floor before fleeing with cash.
Franklin County Sheriff detectives believe the same man held up a Speedway at 4797 W. Broad St early Halloween morning.
This time, the screwdriver carrying suspect, was wearing a white hat and black jacket.
Both suspects fled on foot.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Franklin County Sheriff's office at 614-525-3551.
