The Little Falls Police Department is currently investigating an alleged armed robbery of a 7-Eleven convenience store which took place early Monday morning. According to the information released thus far, the suspect is described as a male between 20 to 25 years of age and standing about 5’6. Apparently, he entered the Little Falls store at around 2:20 am Monday morning armed with a 12 inch knife. He approached the counter, flashed the knife and demanded all the money in the register. After grabbing the money from the register, the suspect fled the scene.
The Little Falls police are currently speaking to the Saddle Brook police department as a similar robbery occurred in their township early Sunday morning. Both police departments are seeking any information from the public that may help crack this case. They have even posted a photo of the alleged suspect as he entered the 7-Eleven in Little Falls. If the suspect is caught and prosecuted, he faces up to twenty (20) years in a State Prison on each case if convicted. In addition, armed robbery falls under the No Early Release Act, which mandates that a Defendant serve at least 85% of their sentence before they can become eligible for parole.
