WATCH: Wawa Robber Stuffs Money Down His Pants
A man walked into a Wawa in Somerton, announced a robbery, leaped over the counter, pried open a cash register and eventually escaped with an unknown amount of money, police said.
The incident happened on December 30th; police just released surveillance footage this morning. Cops say the man entered the Wawa at 14101 Bustleton Avenue at 3:08 p.m. and immediately announced a robbery. Surveillance footage shows him jumping over the counter right after walking into the store.
The man then pried open a cash register.
