Police are looking for a man who allegedly held up two convenience stores in Texarkana.
The robberies happened on March 12 at the EZ Marts in the 2900 and 4400 blocks of East Street.
In both incidents, the suspect entered the store armed with a weapon and demanded cash from the register. He later fled on foot with an undisclosed amount of cash.
After a brief investigation, authorities determined the same person committed both robberies.
The suspect is described as a tall and slender black male.
Anyone with information about the robberies is asked to contact the Texarkana Arkansas Police Department at (903) 798-3154 or Texarkana area CrimeStoppers at (903) 793-7867.
