Two convenience stores were robbed in as many days last week in the Loop, according to Chicago police.
In both incidents, three men in their late teens or early 20s entered the convenience stores and went behind the sales counter to grab items, Chicago police said. When store clerks confronted them, they pushed the clerks out of the way and fled on foot.
