Gas station robbery with gun! Police are looking for a trio

By Christian Bart

After a gas station robbery six months ago, the Berlin police are now looking for the perpetrators with photos.

On May 3, three men tried to rob a gas station on Kaiser-Friedrich-Strasse in Charlottenburg.

At around 12:45 a.m., the trio called on a gas station employee with a gun to open the entrance door to the sales area.

The employee refused, one of the perpetrators shot the gun in the air. An accomplice banged on the front door with an emergency hammer. The employee called for help and the perpetrators fled.

Around an hour after the crime at around 1:45 a.m., two of the three men were at another gas station on Bismarckstrasse in Charlottenburg. Here, too, they hit a pane with an emergency hammer.

The suspects are described as follows:
