Washoe County Sheriff's Office Detectives are asking for the public's help with identifying two male suspects involved in the armed robbery of the Lemmon Valley 7-Eleven store late last night.

At approximately 11:20 p.m. on Thursday, September 15, 2016, the two suspects entered the 7-Eleven on Lemmon Drive dressed in dark hoodies and wearing bright, multi-colored shoes. One of the sweatshirts has a distinct, oval-shaped logo on the back.

One suspect was armed with what appears to be a long rifle. The suspects stole an undisclosed amount of cash from the store's register before leaving the store on foot.

Surveillance photos of the suspects are attached to this press release.

Anyone with information about the suspects in this robbery is asked to contact the Washoe County Sheriff's Office Detective Division at (775) 328-3320 or Secret Witness at (775) 322-4900.
