APD seeking suspects in alleged Dollar Tree robbery

At least one of the suspects is accused of pulling out a gun on a store clerk.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Police are looking for two suspects each accused of pulling out a gun on employees during an alleged robbery last month.

According to Albuquerque police, this all happened Aug. 29 at around 3:56 p.m., at a Dollar Tree store near San Mateo and Montgomery.

A woman walked into the store and allegedly started grabbing items and filling up her backpack. Once it was full, police say she left through the emergency exit.

As she did, a manager tried stopping her. That’s when she allegedly pulled out a gun, which a man reportedly with her also did when a security guard came out to confront them.

If you have any information on this, call APD Crime Stoppers at 505-843-STOP (7867).
