Suspect Sought in Commercial Robberies on Southside

Richmond Police detectives are asking for the public’s help to identify the individual in the attached photos who is a suspect in two separate robberies at businesses this week.

On Wednesday at a store in the 3300 block of Richmond Highway and again today at a store in the 2600 block of Hull Street, the individual in the photo attempted to walk out of the store with a basket of items without paying.

Anyone with information about the identity or whereabouts of this person is asked to call Second Precinct Detective J. Myers at (804) 646-8152 or contact Crime Stoppers at (804) 780-1000. The P3 Tips Crime Stoppers app for smartphones may also be used. All Crime Stoppers methods are anonymous.
