WATCH surveillance video from both robberies:
On June 8, at about 9:30 p.m., a man dressed in a gray hooded sweatshirt, black Nike pants and Nike sneakers entered the store with white socks on his hands, according to police.
He approached a 22-year-old female employee, put his sock-covered hands on her back and told her: "Give me the money and open the register," police said.
The suspect then escorted the employee behind the counter where she opened the cash register and gave the male an undisclosed amount of money before fleeing.
