Two armed men robbed five cases of cigarettes from a RaceTrac gas station in the 2100 block of West Mockingbird early Saturday morning at about 5:30 a.m.

The thieves fled the scene in a car, however Dallas Police ended the chase on foot. 
 
One suspect was taken into custody while the other suspect is at large. He is described as a heavy set black male with an orange shirt and jeans.
 
Just how many cigarettes are in five cases? Each case contains 20 cartons of cigarettes, each carton contains 10 packs, and each pack contains 20 individual cigarettes. That makes 20,000 stolen cigarettes.
