(June 12, 2008)—Copperas Cove police released surveillance photos Thursday of a man they think is responsible for two convenience store robberies in May and who Killeen police think is responsible for two hold-ups in their city, as well.

The robber first struck on May 22, when he robbed the Texaco at 2411 E. Highway 190 around 10:50 p.m.

The man, who was white, was wearing a camouflage hat, sunglasses and a blue shirt produced a small silver handgun and demanded money before fleeing on foot.

He struck again around 11:15 p.m. a week later, on May 29, at the Mickey’s convenience store at 1306 Georgetown Rd.

This time he was wearing a white cap, a white-striped shirt and jeans.

He again produced a small silver handgun, demanded cash and fled on foot.

Killeen police said Thursday they think the same man robbed a 7-Eleven store early Monday morning at 1000 W. S. Young Drive.

In the most recent hold-up, the robber, who was white, about 5-foot-6 and in his late 20s, produced a gun and demanded cash.

He fled on foot.

Police said he was wearing sunglasses, a ball cap, a white shirt and jeans.

Killeen police think he’s also responsible for a hold-up on May 28 at the Valero store at 1104 W. Rancier.

Police are asking anyone with information to call either the Killeen Police Department at (254) 501-8800 or Killeen Crime Stoppers at (254) 526-8477 or Copperas Cove Crime Stoppers at (254) 547-1111.

I would like to see a law passed that would require all convenience store employees to wear bullet proof vests. This law would make the employer pay for this protection to possibly save their lives. Nothing would have saved my sister's life when she was brutally tortured and murdered for $400.00 in a fast food robbery. She was only twenty-two years old and left two babies.
