“The individual responsible for that robbery matches the description of the individual who committed the robbery at the Rite Aid in Falls Township,” Falls Detective Stephen Reeves said.

The suspect in the Falls robbery is described as six-foot-fall with a thin build last seen wearing a navy blue hooded jacket, blue jeans, white sneakers, dark color baseball cap, a black bandanna, black sunglasses and blue gloves. A white get away vehicle was used in both robberies. Lt. Hank Ward said police got a partial tag number of Saturday night as the car fled toward Tyburn Road.

In the Falls robbery, the suspect used a revolver and made off with cash.
