Authorities are investigating two robberies at 7-Eleven convenience stores in Long Beach this weekend.
The first unfolded Saturday around 9:30 p.m. in the 3400 block of Long Beach Boulevard. There, officers were dispatched to the location and learned that two suspects had entered, walked behind the counter and removed the cash drawer from separate cash registers before fleeing.
At that location, one of the suspects reached into the front of his waistband to indicate he was armed, police said.
Sunday night, around 4 a.m., officers responded to another 7-Eleven in the 5000 block of Long Beach Boulevard and learned that four suspects had entered the location, reached into the counter and stolen a cash register. The group fled in a dark-colored sedan.
