Print

A clerk at a Gallup gas station was transported to the hospital after being cut during an armed robbery late Thursday afternoon.

Details released Thursday night were sketchy but this is what we know at this time.

Two Native American males entered the convenience store at the Mustang Conoco, 3302 W. Highway 66, at about 5:20 pm, and attempted to run out with beer, heading north from the station.

One of the clerks was cut in the process, but police have not released any information on how serious the cut was.

One suspect has been arrested and charges of aggravated battery and robbery were being placed against him Thursday night. At this time, his name has not been released.

We should have more details Friday morning.
