Robberies In Huntington

{Huntington, West Virginia}...Police say two robberies happened early Sunday morning in Huntington. The first one occurred around 5:30 A.M. at the 7-11 on 5th Avenue. An employee at the BP Station on 16th Street told police a male suspect entered the convenience store just after 8:00 A.M. and handed the clerk a note saying he had a gun, and he then demanded money. Police say 32 year old Charles Wentz fled from them twice when they tried to question him about the robberies. Police found Wentz hiding in a CSX rail car. He has been arrested in connection with fleeing and remains a person of interest in the robberies.
