by Alex Lloyd Gross
A male who was going to take the days deposits from the Global Gas Station on the 2200 block of Allegheny Avenue was robbed by a male who stalked him and laid in wait. Philadelphia Police said the incident happened on August 31,2026 at 13:37 PM.
90 minutes before the robbery, the thief parked his car next to the employees car and raised the hood to make it look like he was broken down. He then laid in wait for almost 90-minutes until the employee emerged with the bag.
Then he pounced, robbing the male of the proceeds. His license plate does not come back to a registered vehicle, police said. He was last seen driving west of Allegheny Avenue.
Should you have any of the males whereabouts or identity, police want to hear from you. If you see this suspect, do not approach, contact 911 immediately.
