Seattle Police are investigating two armed robberies at Ballard Subway restaurants, and are asking the public for help.
The first robbery happened on July 16 at 9am at the Subway on 15th Ave NW. According to the police report, the suspect presented a handgun and demanded that the clerk hand over all the money in the register. The suspect then said, “Nothing personal, bro,” and the clerk gave the man $270. The suspect then ran out the door heading north on 15th Ave NW past Mud Bay towards Safeway.
The second robbery was on July 26 at the Subway on Holman Rd. The man was back with his handgun, and again made away with around $200 in cash.
