Sioux Falls police checking video from two restaurant robberies

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO AM) - Police say it’s possible the same suspect held up two Sioux Falls fast food businesses over the weekend but it’s not confirmed.

     Officer Sam Clemens says a white male with a handgun robbed the Domino’s on South Minnesota Avenue late Friday night and the Subway on East 10^th Street early Saturday afternoon.

     Clemens says both suspects share the same physical description: in his thirties, five-eight and about 180 pounds.  He says once investigators compare video from both restaurants they may find it's the same suspect.  The descriptions are similar as well as both suspects displaying a handgun, but he says it's too early in the investigation to be certain it's the same person. 

     Clemens says the Domino’s robber wore a black coat and a black baseball cap and the Subway robber wore a red shirt and khakis.

     In both cases, the robber fled on foot with an undisclosed amount of money.
