Police in Council Bluffs are investigating the second armed armed robbery this week, of a convenience store. At around 6:50-p.m. Thursday, uniformed officers responded to the D & S Express for a reported armed robbery at the business. The suspect had fled prior to the arrival of officers. The cashier on duty at the time said a black male entered the business and pointed a hand gun at her. The suspect then ordered the cashier to give him all of the monies from the register and threatened to shoot her in the face if she did not.

The suspect fled the business with the cash drawer and an undetermined amount of money. He was described as being approximately 6-feet tall, in his late twenties to thirty’s, with a stocky build. The suspect also had what appeared to be a torn up t-shirt covering his face and was wearing dark clothing with gloves.

The incident remains under investigation. Anyone having any information concerning the robbery should contact the Council Bluffs Police Department’s Criminal Investigation Division at (712) 328-4728 or at Crime Stoppers (712) 328-7867.
