Convenience store robbed in Pawtucket

 

01:00 AM EST on Thursday, November 6, 2008

 

 

PAWTUCKET - A convenience store was robbed at knifepoint yesterday and the police say that they are investigating similarities between that robbery and several others in the city.

At 2:28 p.m., a man armed with a knife entered the A&I Convenience Store at 191 Pawtucket Ave. and demanded money from a female clerk. The clerk gave him an undetermined amount of cash and he fled. The police described the robber as about 5-foot-10 with a thin build. He was wearing a gray flannel shirt.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Detective Donti Rosciti at (401) 277-9100, extension 737.

............................................

We had a robbery of the Gulf Express on East Avenue a few weeks ago as well and hope this is not an upturn in the crime scene for all of Pawtucket. We also have had reports of car robberies in the Providence sections of Summit like Hillside Avenue and others...

Please keep your eyes open and make the call to the police if you have any concerns.

Some neighbors are a little concerned as we see fewer patrol cars and that some of these robberies are near us or friends. Can we call the police about our concern or can NAP pass these concerns to the proper people?
