Detectives from the Warsaw Police Department and the Kosciusko County Sheriff's Department are investigating a series of three robberies in Warsaw.
Officials believe all three robberies could be connected.
The first of the incidents occurred Sunday at the Freedom Express Station, 801 E. Center St., Warsaw. Around 8:11 a.m. Sunday, an employee of the business reported an armed robbery. An undisclosed amount of money was taken by a male suspect who left the scene in a white car.
Today around 2 a.m., the BP station at U.S. 30 and Parker Street, was robbed by a male subject in a black ski mask. The suspect displayed a gun and took an undisclosed amount of cash from the station.
About 45 minutes later, an employee of the Shell Station at the intersection of U.S. 30 and CR 250E reported another robbery. An employee at the business told officers from the Kosciusko County Sheriff's Department that a white male in a older dark blue or black vehicle was circling the parking lot before a white man robbed the station.
According to the witness, the man was between 5-feet, 10 inches and 6 feet tall and weighed approximately 145-150 pounds. He was dressed in black clothing and wore a ski mask.
When the employee came out of a back room, the robber jumped from behind the counter and demanded cash from the register. The suspect ran from the store and got into a dark vehicle driven by another man.
Police think two or three different suspects may be involved in the robberies.
Anyone with information about the robberies should contact the Warsaw Police Department at 574-372-9511 or the Kosciusko County Sheriff's Department at 574-267-5667.
