2 Robberies Reported In Gables

Two robberies have been reported by Gables police recently. Flagler Finance Co., 3634 West Flagler St., reported being robbed of $200 Friday afternoon by a white youth who used a snub-nosed .32 caliber revolver. Monday morning at 2 a.m., two Negroes walked into the Union gas station at 199 South Dixie Hwy., and said they wanted a fan belt, but what they really wanted was $30 in bills and change from the attendant, Joseph Gay, of 5790 SW Fifth St. They knocked Gay's glasses off and held him down while they took the money. Then they ran off.
