VIDEO: Police Seek Help Identifying Masked Man in Gas Station Robbery

The Fairfax County Police Department is seeking the public’s help to identify a masked man who police believe robbed a Chevron gas station (11410 North Shore Drive) last week.

The man entered the business on Wednesday around 8:30 p.m. He picked an item off the shelf and approached the counter before pulling a gun and demanding money, police said.

The suspect left the scene with an undisclosed amount of cash. No one was injured and police arrived on the scene within two minutes of the call. A helicopter-assisted search proved unsuccessful, police said.

Contact Detective D. McAuliffe at 703-246-7800 if you have information. Tips can be submitted anonymously through Crime Solvers by visiting http://www.fairfaxcrimesolvers.org, or calling 1-866-411-TIPS.

They can also be sent in via text by texting “TIP187” plus the message to CRIMES (274637).

Anonymous tipsters are eligible for cash rewards of $100 to $1000 if their information leads to an arrest.
