Bandana-wearing gunmen rob North Plains gas station
NORTH PLAINS, Ore. -- Two men robbed a gas station at gunpoint in the early-morning hours of Saturday and police are now searching for them.
At approximately 2 a.m. Nov. 17, police were on the scene at the Chevron Market Express in the 10,000 block of Glencoe Road. Employees there said two men with handguns entered the store and robbed it at gunpoint. Police said at least one employee suffered a minor injury after being punched by one of the men.
The suspects fled with money, but police have not disclosed how much was taken.
“The suspects in this case should be considered dangerous, and need to be apprehended before their dangerous behavior results in serious harm to other victims or themselves," said North Plains Police Chief Bill Snyder.
Police said one suspect is a black male, who is approximately 20-25 years old. He is 6 feet tall with a medium build. At the time of the robbery, he wore a red bandana, a black hoodie with a shield-shaped white logo that was approximately six inches wide just below the hood on the backside. He also wore dark pants.
Police said the other suspect is also a black male, who is approximately 20-25 years old. He was about 5-foot-10 and has a thin build. At the time of the robbery, he wore a bandana mask, a green hoodie with large Nike logo near his right shoulder, gloves and blue sweat pants with broad white stripe on sides.
They look more brown than black. That hoodie is black. Their skin is not.
@Mikey You're not very bright, are you?
Are the pickings in NE Portland getting a bit lean?
I'm NOT an Obama fan... but I highly doubt the antics of these two stupid idiots are his fault. The new tax, er, health 'care'? Yes. But not the robbery. That's 100% THEIR responsibility and blaming the President is moronic.
He must have had a big bet on the Oregon Ducks, needed some change to pay his book.Â
Between 1982 and 1985 I was held up at gunpoint in SE Portland 3 times in various jobs. Â
Â
Don't give me the Obama is responsible crap you dim bulbs. Â He's no more responsible now than Reagan was back then.
 @Festivus Three times? What type of job were you giving?
 @Festivus What is your problem and why are you bringing Obama into a topic that has nothing to do with him.
 @Jamie Trouble reading the posts that preceded mine?
 @Festivus Why not blame Obama? Illegals break the law and never get prosecuted, so we set the trend of why can they break the law and other citizens can't? Or better yet which laws can we break without fear of prosecution and which can't?
 @Thebigboot Why blame Obama?
It would make more sense to blame the Founding Fathers.
They started this whole mess. :-P
 @Festivus Way back, my grandfather was carrying the bank deposit from a 'larger' store on Hawthorne, a guy pulled a gun, grandfather ran and the guy shot, and hit the Barber across the street in the hand. Grandfather told the newspaper, 'I've been shot at by better men', meaning the Japanese during the war. Just FYI.
More of obamas people doing what they do best. "Diversity" is killing this country,rotting it from the inside.
 @JouThePlumber You're not very bright, are you?
@Mikey Not as dumb as you.
@JouThePlumber If it were not for "Diversity" in this country, you would not be here. (unless you are Native American, in which case I apologize). All white, black,oriental etc. are an invasive species. Illegals have been a problem a hell of a lot longer than Obama has been alive, much less a pres.
 @iamtroglodite B.S.
@iamtroglodite Yep, native american... I was BORN HERE... that means native... no not an indian.
@oodathunked how is it bs? The people that were here first did not give the whites that killed them en-mass a green card. The only reason any of the Native Americans "welcomed" any of the whites is because they did not have much of a choice; try to get along or get wiped out. If I remember right, it was in the early 1600's when it realy started.
 @JouThePlumber Just re-distributing the wealth.
 @JouThePlumber I bet you miss Nazi Germany don't you?
Â
I am glad you get to vent your bigotry here rather than out in your community.
 @darren vandervort  @JouThePlumberÂ
You prove Godwins law. Usually it takes a longer but you jumped into it really fast.
Â
Strong work.
 @darren vandervort  @JouThePlumberÂ
But I am also not ignorant enough to think that JouThePlumber likes Nazi's. That is really a huge stretch.
 @RalphCramden  @JouThePlumber I know you are not that obtuse.
 @darren vandervort  @JouThePlumberÂ
I think he meant diversity. Is there a hidden meaning in that word that I am not aware of?
 @RalphCramden  @JouThePlumber What do you think he meant by diversity? Â
 @darren vandervort  @JouThePlumberÂ
How is that comment related to Nazi's??? Man, you have a really convoluted thought process.
 @RalphCramden  @JouThePlumber ""Diversity" is killing this country,rotting it from the inside." Â
Â
Sorry, they actually beat me to the Nazi reference.
 @darren vandervort  @JouThePlumber How about Obama's bigotry? Remember the beer summit? Or his "looked like my son" comment?Â
The main page photo looks like a women...
 @RandyH I thought so too.
 @RandyH I thought the same....
As the economy continues to 'improve', incidents like these will be commonplace, to the point where the police won't even respond unless there is a shooting and/or killing involved.
 @theobserver Oh, I'm pretty sure the police out in the remote North Plains area of Washington County, will be sure to respond to any armed robbery occurring on their territory. They have an image to protect.
Crime here in Longview has risen by 50 percent, all due to the "Wonderful Economy"
 @lee986321 I think that it has more to do with all the meth addicts out there.
That looks like a WOMAN!
F ing parasites. It's really too bad that the store clerk wasn't able to shoot and kill both of these pigs. Hows that economy working out?
 @last boyscout I was with you up to "pigs".
Â
These parasites, as you call them, will do things like this regardless of how well the economy is doing. It's all part of the thrill for them. The money is just a little bonus that goes along with the terror they can incite in others and the rush of power they feel while holding the their manhood...um...I mean...the gun.
