Dallas police need the public’s help finding a man they believed robbed two Metro PCS stores Wednesday morning in northwest Dallas.
At about 10 a.m., according to DPD, a suspect rolled up to the discount cellphone carrier’s outlet in the 10900 block of Webb Chapel Road in a beige, early 2000s model Ford Explorer driven by another man. He got out of the car, headed inside the store and robbed it at gunpoint before heading out the door and speeding off in the Explorer.
Forty minutes later, the same man showed up at a second Metro PCS, this one in the 4200 block of LBJ Freeway, less than 4 miles to the northeast. Again, the suspect got out of the Explorer, ran inside the store, robbed it at gunpoint and then rode off in the Explorer.
