The suspect had a handgun and took an unknown amount of money from a female employee working the Subway located on 203 N. Mission St.
The third in the string of armed robberies was reported at a gas station at the corner of High and Adams streets at 4:53 p.m., just six hours prior to the most recent.
“There was a guy who came in with dark clothes, picked up an item like he was going to buy it and presented a handgun,” Mount Pleasant Police Department Detective David Sabuda said at the scene.
A male subject was said to have been fleeing the scene on foot.
The Mount Pleasant Police Department said in a news release that the third robbery might be connected to the two that happened Saturday.
