Police are looking for a couple robbers who held up a liquor store in Muldoon twice in a week's time. Here's a release police Lt. Dave Parker sent out this morning:

On 8/28/09 and 9/4/09 two suspects robbed the Holiday Liquor Store on Muldoon Road. Security cameras captured their images. During the second robbery one of the suspects threatened the clerk’s life and flashed a gun. Stolen were a case of beer and a basket of mini liquor bottles.

Robbery/Assault Detective Todd Summey is requesting help from the public to identify the suspects. Anyone with information on their identity should call APD 786-8900 or CrimeStoppers at 561-STOP.
