Suspected robber.
The man has robbed the Lucky 7 grocery store, 9618 4th Ave. S.W., twice in less than two weeks, and may have robbed a store in Seattle as well. The Lucky 7 robberies occurred at 1:40 p.m. Jan. 27th and 8:15 a.m. Feb. 7.
In both robberies the suspect violently pushed the 71-year-old female clerk to the ground then went to the cash register and stole cash and Lottery tickets. No gun or other weapon was seen.
The suspect is about 5-feet-2 or 5-feet-3, about around 135 pounds. He was clean-cut and 18 to 19 years old. He wore a NY Yankees baseball hat. In one of robberies he wore a hoody as well.
In the first robbery the man was seen fleeing the scene in a silver, 2-door, Mercedes or BMW.
If anyone has information about these crimes or recognizes the suspect they are asked to call the King County Sheriff's Office at 206-296-3311, or 911.
