Cops eye suspects in Dunkin' Donuts robberies

Police said two men were taken into custody earlier tonight in connection with the robbery of a Crescentville Dunkin' Donuts. The shop, on Adams Avenue near Whitaker, was held up at gunpoint about 4 p.m. by two crooks who fled in a Jeep Rubicon, an investigator said. Their getaway was filmed by a store surveillance camera.

A short while later, police stopped what appeared to be the same Jeep near 22nd Street and Indiana Avenue. Two men who were in the Jeep were taken in for questioning; one was positively identified as being involved in the Adams Avenue holdup, the investigator said. Police were trying to determine if both men were involved in armed robberies of at least two other area Dunkin' Donuts earlier in the day.
