Lawmen in one county are trying to nab the same armed robber who held up three convenience stores Wednesday morning.
To view pictures of the robber, click on the SLIDESHOW link above.
The first two happened in Wayne County where the robber first walked to a drink display, went to pay for the drink and pulled a knife on the clerk. Deputies say the Pantry Convenience Store on Highway 117 South was robbed at 1:53 a.m. Then about two hours later the Pantry on Highway 70 West was held up.
Around 6:30 a.m. Goldsboro police say the Kangaroo on North William Street was also robbed by a man armed with a knife. Police say the robber was seen leaving in a burgundy passenger car.
The robber was wearing a baseball cap, white t-shirt and gray shorts. He's a black man, 40 to 50 years old, between 5'6" and 6' tall. No one was injured in the three hold-ups.
Police have released surveillance video of the robber and pictures in hopes that someone will identify him.
Anyone with information should contact Wayne County Crimestoppers at 919-735-2255, Goldsboro police at 919-735-2255 or Wayne County Sheriff's Office at 919-731-1480.

Bob, if Sheriff Gibbs fired you, it was the best days work he ever did. If not, he missed a real opportunity to bump up the average IQ at the department. Well I guess somebody did at some point in the past so somebody did a good days work.

Bob, it must take one to know one. Your previous posts do not read like a conservative republican but more like an apoligist and an excuse maker for people's bad behavior. Since I am not a complainer I will not ask the moderator to take down your personal attack, I will simply point out that the post that made you lose your head like offended schoolgirl only asked you for some of your stupid tolerance blather. Stupid tolerance blather is really in vogue at the present time and has become popular with both political parties. I could not care less whose school bandwagon you jump on. I called you out for being a silly, fact oblivious apologist to the people who are terrorizing our communities. Now, calm yourself down, have another smoke, drink, or whatever will mellow you and re-read my previous post. Now, hot head, did you see the word liberal, demo, idiot, moron or any other word associated with the left wing socialists? No wonder your an ex-employee of the county.
