Masked Robber Raids Gas Station in Rüsselsheim - Masked Knife-Wielding Robber Strikes Rüsselsheim Gas Station
A masked robber armed with a knife targeted a gas station in Rüsselsheim on Wednesday evening. The suspect, described as a young man between 20 and 25 years old, threatened two employees before fleeing with cash. Police have launched an investigation but have yet to identify the perpetrator.
The incident unfolded at a petrol station in the Groß-Gerau district. The robber, standing around 1.85 metres tall, entered the premises wearing a mask and brandishing a knife. He demanded money from two staff members before grabbing an undisclosed sum and escaping on foot.
A search operation was immediately launched, but officers failed to locate the suspect. The case has since been handed over to the criminal investigation unit. Authorities have not released further details about the suspect’s identity, confirming only that he remains at large.
The investigation continues as police review evidence from the scene. Witnesses with information are urged to come forward. The suspect’s description—tall, masked, and armed—remains the primary lead in the ongoing manhunt.
