A suburban man and a woman have been arrested in connection with the robbery of a Speedway Gas Station in Crete last week. According to police the woman first called to report a domestic incident hoping to distract police while her partner allegedly robbed the gas station of several cartons of cigarettes. No one was hurt in the robbery. The distraction effort did not work well, police caught the pair in their getaway vehicle a short time later.
Police in White County, Indiana are reporting a scam going around the area. It begins with a call from a man who says he’s with the Sheriff’s Department calling to inform you that you have missed jury duty and have been fined by the courts. You’re then instructed to purchase a gift card from Kroger to pay the fine. White County Sheriff’s police say they do not operate that way and if you get one of the calls, just hang up.
