The Hall County Sheriff's Office arrested a Gainesville man Monday morning after he allegedly robbed the same convenience store in East Hall County two different times within several days.
According to a press release from the agency, Tyler Douglas Crumley, 19, was charged with two counts of armed robbery and two counts of aggravated assault, all of which are felonies.
The agency said Crumley allegedly first entered the Express Food Mart Exxon Station on Gillsville Highway at about 8:10 a.m. Saturday. He then robbed the clerk at knifepoint and left with an undisclosed amount of cash.
"Investigators on that particular case went to the area with a K9 team and searched for a while but were unsuccessful in tracking a suspect there," Hall County Sheriff's Office Public Information Officer Derreck Booth said.
Crumley then allegedly entered the same store at about 9:20 a.m. Monday, held the clerk at knifepoint and left with an undisclosed amount of cash.
No one was injured in either robbery.
Crumley was located at about 10:45 a.m. Monday, shortly after the robbery earlier that morning, in a pickup truck in the Walgreens' parking lot on South Enota Drive Northeast in Gainesville. Investigators recovered the weapon and a quantity of cash when Crumley was arrested.
Crumley is being held in the Hall County Jail without bond.
