Asheville -- July 28, 2023: In a news release Thursday, Asheville Police announced they need the public's help identifying two suspects who robbed a store early Wednesday morning.

According to a news release by APD, at 1:31 a.m. on July 26, APD Patrol Officers investigated an armed robbery at the Quick Trip Store at 545 Tunnel Road. Two masked thieves with pistols entered the business. One stole items, while the other "pistol whipped" the clerk.

Investigators believe the first suspect was a black male wearing a light-colored face mask, black Champion sweatshirt, gloves, black pants, and maybe mismatched socks. The second suspect was a black man wearing a black mask, a black hooded sweatshirt with a yellow "L" and a blue/green "R," gloves, black jeans, and black and white sneakers.

If anyone has any information about the identity of these suspects, you are encouraged to contact APD at (828) 252-1110. Or you can send an anonymous tip using the TIP2APD smartphone application (search "Asheville PD" in your app store) or by texting TIP2APD to 847411.
