Authorities Seeking Information Regarding Armed Robbery

The Orange County Sheriff’s Office is asking the public for information after an armed robbery over the weekend.

Authorities say a 911 call was placed just before 11 o’clock on Friday night reporting an armed robbery at Randy’s Citgo, 2300 Highway 86 South, in Hillsborough.

Police say two suspects demanded money from the registers, taking an estimated $210, the store phone and the clerk’s personal phone before fleeing the scene on foot.

Both suspects were wearing black hoodies, blue latex gloves and had their faces covered with a bandana, according to law enforcement.

Surveillance photos show one suspect in red pants, who appears to be a male in his 20s, who is displaying what appears to be a black revolver with a 6-8” barrel.

The other suspect, who was wearing gray pants and carrying a dark blue book bag with white designs on it, appears to be a female in her 20s.

Authorities say Hillsborough Police responded and ran a K-9 track from the store and to the parking lot of the Pinewood Montessori School off mill Point where the track ended.

Anyone who recognizes the suspects or has information regarding the armed robbery is asked to contact the Orange County Sheriff’s Office at (919) 245-2900.
