Two Suspects Rob Exxon at Gunpoint

NEWAR, NJ- The Newark Public Safety Director is asking for the public’s help to identify the suspects of an armed robbery. 

At 3:50 a.m. the two suspects entered the Exxon gas station at 625 McCarter Highway and stole cash from the attendant’s pockets at gunpoint.

“Detectives say first suspect is described as a heavy set Hispanic male wearing a two-tone gray, hooded sweatshirt, red and black Nike shorts, and white Nike sneakers,” the statement said. “The second suspect is described as a Black male with a slim build, wearing black Adidas sweat pants, a black hooded sweatshirt, and black sneakers”.

Director O’Hara urges anyone with information about either of this suspect to call the Police Division’s 24-hour Crime Stopper tip line at 1-877-NWK-TIPS (1-877-695-8477). All anonymous Crime Stopper tips are kept confidential and could result in a reward.
