 The first of three Allsup's robberies within a 24 hour period started on Friday afternoon.

At around 2 p.m. a gunman went into the Allsup's on North 10th and Pioneer.

Police say the suspect showed a gun, took an undisclosed amount of money and took off.

A second robbery took place some time between Friday afternoon and early Saturday morning at the Allsup's  on Ambler Avenue.

The suspect also showed a gun, took cash, and got away.

Later, at around 3 a.m. Saturday morning the Allsup's on South Clack pass Nonesuch Road was also robbed.

According to witnesses the suspect had what was described as a silver gun and took off with some cash.

Another witness that was in the store at the time said it happened so quickly-- he wasn't aware that a robbery even took place. 

Police say there could be a connection between all of three robberies because of description and the gun used.

At this time police are looking for a black male, between 5'6 and 6'0" wearing a light gray hoodie and used a silver semi-automatic hand gun in the robberies.

If you have any information on these robberies you are asked to call crime stoppers at 676-tips.
