TOLEDO, OH (Toledo News Now) -
Toledo
Police are trying to find who is responsible for robbing a local bar at
knife-point.
This
is the second time J & D's Side Trip has been robbed at knife point, and
employees say they think it was the same person both times.
The
two robberies were about a month apart, but police are trying to figure out if
they're connected. The most recent robbery occurred Tuesday at 12:30 a.m.
According to police reports, someone walked in through the back door with a
knife and demanded money. Employees gave it to him and he ran out.
Police
say a similar incident happened about a month ago. They say it's not uncommon
for a suspect to develop a pattern and hit a location twice, but they say they
keep track of all that because those trends are often what help them catch
suspects.
"That
plays to our advantage sometimes, because the more times they do things like
that, the more chance they have for getting caught," said Sgt. Joe Heffernan.
Anyone
with information that could help police is asked to call Crimestoppers at
419-255-1111.
