This Week in Crime: 7-11 Robbed on, well, Rt. 7

For once, it wasn't the Soapstone or Sunset Hills 7-11s that were the target of a late-night armed robbery.

A 26-year-old Great Falls-area woman working at the 7-Eleven store, 10508 Leesburg Pike, was robbed at gunpoint on Tuesday, August 11 around 2:30 a.m. Two men entered the store; one produced a handgun and demanded money. The victim complied, while the second suspect grabbed cigarettes and other items. Both men fled; no one was injured.

Both suspects were described as Hispanic and around 5 feet 6 inches tall. Both men were wearing solid black clothing and bandanas covering their faces and hair.
