State Fair police requested a safety alert to be sent Sunday morning after three “armed and violent” people robbed gas stations in Roseville and Little Canada, assaulting a clerk during one robbery and leading police on a chase that ended in a crash in St. Paul, authorities say.
A Facebook post by the Ramsey County sheriff’s office gave the following details:
The first robbery occurred at 6:54 a.m. at a Speedway gas station in the 2200 block of Rice Street in Roseville. The second was at 8:34 a.m. at a BP gas station in the 300 block of Little Canada Road in Little Canada. The third robbery, in which a clerk was assaulted, occurred at 9:05 a.m. at a BP gas station in the 3100 block of Cleveland Avenue in Roseville.
Police later spotted the getaway vehicle and chased the suspects into St. Paul, where the vehicle crashed near Pierce Butler Route and Prior Avenue North. One of the three suspects was arrested. The other two escaped into the woods. Deputies and K9 teams continue to search for them.
