A Bristol Township man was arrested Sunday for an alleged knife-point robbery.
Bristol Township police said Daniel J. Cahill, 24, walked into the BP gas station on Route 13, not far from Haines Road, and placed a can of Red Bull on the counter around 10:20 a.m. He then reportedly pulled out a knife and jumped toward the clerk as they rang up the energy drink.

Cahill ran behind the counter and held the knife toward the female clerk, ordering her to open the cash drawer or she would be killed, police said.
The clerk opened the cash drawer and removed about $1,000.
Cahill was arrested shortly after the incident and arraigned Sunday afternoon on charged of robbery, theft, receiving stolen property, terroristic threats, possession of a weapon, and reckless endangerment. He was sent to the Bucks County Correctional Facility on 10 percent of $300,000.
