No other descriptions of the suspects were provided by police.
The second alleged robbery happened nearly five hours later in the 400 block of 3rd Avenue North.

The woman suspect is described as being approximately 20 years old and five feet three inches tall with a teardrop tattoo under her eye. She was reportedly wearing all-black clothing at the time of the alleged incident.
One male suspect is described as being in his late 20s, six feet tall and also wearing all black.
