7-Eleven Robbery

Salt Lake City police have released new security camera video footage in hopes someone will recognize the robbers of a 7-Eleven store earlier this week. The holdup occurred about 5 a.m. Wednesday when three men, one with a black semi-automatic handgun, entered the store at 1300 South and 500 East. While two suspects started loading up with beer from the cooler, the third ordered the male clerk to open the cash register. The three, described as Latino or Polynesian, fled with beer, cigarettes and an unspecified amount of money. The clerk told police the gunman has a distinctive tattoo on his lower neck and upper chest in the shape of a necklace. It had script-style text, but the clerk was unable to read it. Police ask anyone who recognizes the suspects or has any other information relating to the robbery to contact them at 801-799-3000.
