Garner, N.C. Sept. 27 2008 — The Wake County Sheriff's Office is asking for the public's help in identifying two men they believe have committed a string of armed robberies.

The two men are suspected of committing at least six armed robberies around the county in the past few weeks, said Phyllis Stephens, a spokeswoman for the sheriff's office. In each robbery, they carried handguns.

Investigators believe that the men struck most recently at the White Oak Mart, 7940 White Oak Road in Garner, around 8:20 p.m.

The pair might have also robbed another Garner convenience store on Tuesday night. Garner police have released surveillance video from the robbery of the G-Exxon, 1305 U.S. Highway 70 West.

Good for that clerk. He did exactly what he was supposed to do, and made it out alive.
