Two Lorain Robberies Reported As Marksmen Strike
Two armed holdups in Lorain possibly by the same pair yielded at least $100. At 9 p.m. yesterday clerks at Lawson Company Store on 31st Street and Vine Avenue were forced to the floor as one robber demanded cash from the register while the other menaced a cigarette machine. About eight hours later at 5 a.m. two men robbed Payless Gas Station on East 28th Street after following attendant Alex Baker and forcing him to surrender keys and cash from the drawer. One robber brandished a revolver. Police described the bandits as about 5 foot 6 inches and 6 feet tall, wearing coats, and cited the state law implications for a school district contract dispute unrelated to the robberies.
