Robbers in Hoods Stage Halloween Themed Stickup
In a late Tuesday robbery at Jimbo's Food Market at 26th Street and Boston Avenue, two gun-wielding youths wearing hooded masks robbed the store of about 55 dollars at 10 53 p m. The incident, part of a string of hold ups in Lubbock and nearby, followed careful planning as the bandits demanded the cash drawer be opened while one kept watch by the door. Mrs. C B Key, the long time employee, narrowly observed their faces through small mask slits before service and security were alerted. Police continue to investigate the rash of similar incidents impacting local stores and service stations over the past two weeks.
