Police are investigating after an armed man has hit two Popeyes restaurants in North Texas.
The first robbery happened on Dec. 2 at about 6:30 p.m on East Camp Wisdom Road in Duncanville. Officers said a man wearing a red hooded sweatshirt with a black vest and black pants walked in with gun a and robbed the restaurant.
The second robbery took place on Jan. 3 at about 7 p.m. in the 1000 block of East Pleasant Run Road. The armed man entered the restaurant dressed exactly like the individual in the first robbery. After the robbery, he left in a small, black SUV, (possibly a Nissan Juke), which was being driven by another person, police said.
Police think the same person committed both robberies because the man was wearing similar clothing in both cases, and the robberies were done in very similar fashion.
Both robberies occurred in the evening hours (between 6:30pm - 6:55pm) and at Popeyes restaurants.
No injuries to the workers or customers were reported.
Anyone with information is asked to call the DeSoto Police Department at 469-658-3050.
