The suspect was wearing a green Nike running suit in the October 7 armed robbery, according to authorities.
CUMMING - Forsyth County authorities are on the lookout for a suspect who recently robbed two different gas stations on McFarland Parkway near Georgia 400. <br />
<br />
Forsyth County Sheriff's Deputy Doug Rainwater said the same man is believed responsible for an armed hold-up Wednesday night at the Chevron station on McFarland Parkway and for an armed robbery at the RaceTrac in the same area the night of October 7.<br />
<br />
Rainwater described the suspect as a black male in his late 20s to early 30s, about 6-feet tall, weighing between 170 and 200 lbs. He said the suspect wore similar clothing in both hold-ups.<br />
<br />
"In the RaceTrac armed robbery on October 7, he was wearing a red track suit, and last night at the Chevron station on McFarland Parkway, he was wearing the same identical track suit, but it was green in color," said Rainwater.<br />
<br />
In addition, the suspect was wearing a black beanie-type hat and black tennis shoes in both incidents.<br />
<br />
Rainwater said no one was hurt in either robbery, but he said the suspect was careless with the weapon he displayed.<br />
<br />
"In the video, you can see that he's very carefree with the gun in his hand," said Rainwater. "He keeps moving around. At one point he's swinging the gun in a motion to tell people to stop what they're doing."<br />
<br />
Rainwater said there were customers in both stores when the robberies occurred.<br />
<br />
He said the suspect got away with cash and also picked up cigars and cigarettes as he left both stores.<br />
<br />
Anyone who recognizes the suspect is asked to contact the Forsyth County Sheriff's Office Criminal Investigation Section at 678-513-5920. <br />
