The Terre Haute Police Department is investigating an early morning  robbery at a gas station on the city's north side.

Similar to a separate convenience store robbery last week, officers arriving at the Marathon Gas Station at 1255 Locust St.around 3 a.m. were informed  that the suspect had his face covered and no socks or shoes on his feet before fleeing the scene. In fact, Public Information Officer Ryan Adamson said detectives believe the barefoot suspect is the same man in both cases. He has released photos of the suspect from this morning and from the earlier Jiffy Mini Mart incident.

 "Upon arrival it was found that a black male wearing dark shorts, white shirt, blue hoodie entered the gas station and demanded money from the clerk.  The suspect had a white bandanna covering his face and was barefoot,"he said.
