Armed Robber on Rollerblades Flees with Cash After Threatening Gas Station Employee in Abington Township, Pennsylvania, According to Police

According to police, the suspect entered the store on rollerblades and displayed a handgun while also carrying a knife in his waist.

He allegedly demanded cash from the register and threatened to shoot the 19-year-old employee if he did not comply.

“He was yelling at me for no apparent reason, ‘Hand over all the money!’ His voice was quite loud, and at that moment, I felt a bit frightened,” explained the employee, who goes by Armaan.

Police say the suspect threatened to shoot Armaan in the chest.

“The worker handled the situation remarkably well by staying composed and deliberate with his actions,” commented Det. Sgt Troy Hummel of the Abington Township Police Department.

Armaan, who was uninjured in the incident, then handed over the cash.

“When it’s time for him to leave, he just showed me one more time a pistol and said, ‘You are lucky guy,'” Armaan recalled.

The suspect was last seen skating southbound from the scene.
