Birmingham Police Searching for Suspects in Sunoco Gas Station

Daring Robbery Involves ATM Theft and Gunshots

The Sunoco gas station located on 1st Avenue North fell victim to a shocking robbery in the early hours of March 13. Birmingham Police are actively pursuing the three men suspected to be involved in this dangerous crime. The suspects allegedly stole a Bitcoin ATM and one of them reportedly discharged a firearm at a bystander. Luckily, the individual attacked was not injured in the incident.

Reward for Information leading to Arrests

If anyone has information regarding the identities of the suspects involved in the Sunoco gas station robbery, they are urged to reach out to the Birmingham Police Department’s (BPD) Robbery Detectives as soon as possible. Contacts can be made via 205-254-1764.

For those wishing to retain anonymity or are unable to contact the BPD directly, they can disclose any relevant information to Crime Stoppers by dialing 205-254-7777. All information is valuable and could potentially lead to the immediate apprehension of the culprits.

Cash Rewards for Tipsters

It is essential to note that Crime Stoppers provides cash rewards in exchange for critical tips leading to the resolution of this case. The organization is offering up to $5,000 for any information that could play a significant role in identifying and capturing the men responsible for this bold robbery.

Robbery Details

The robbery occurred at roughly 2:40 a.m. on March 13 in which three men targeted the Bitcoin ATM, a rather unorthodox object of loot in robberies. Not satisfied with just the purloining of the Bitcoin ATM, the situation took a terrifying turn as one of the suspects fired shots at a person present in the vicinity.

Thankfully, however, the individual escaped any physical harm. The suspects quickly fled the scene post the alarming act, and the BPD has since embarked on a vigilant manhunt to nab the culprits.

A Call to the Public for Cooperation

In such a critical situation, the Birmingham Police Department calls on all witnesses or individuals with significant information to cooperate wholly and sincerely. Public cooperation is crucial in combating crime and maintaining the safety of the community.
