“The suspect wearing the blue baseball cap pulled a handgun, pointed it at the store clerk, leaned over the counter, and took the till from the cash register,” according to a report from the Dallas Police Department. “The the second suspect waited behind him. Both suspects ran out of the store in an unknown direction. One suspect was wearing a grey hoodie and black pants, the other was wearing a blue baseball cap, black shirt and white shorts.”

Police ask that anyone with information related to the crime call the crimes against persons unit at 214-671-3584 or Crimestoppers at 214-373-TIPS.

Plans to improve safety in this area have been discussed over the years and may begin to come to fruition in conjunction with I-635 and DART improvements.

More to come on those improvements soon.
