Police released a video showing the suspect in the armed robbery of the Family Dollar store, 808 W. Wisconsin Avenue, from Monday.

Surveillance images were released from an armed robbery on Wednesday. That happened at Walgreens, 729 W. Northland Avenue. The suspect was described as a white man, about 6 feet tall with a large build. He was wearing an olive green hooded jacket that had a pocket on the upper left arm. Police say the jacket may have been made of wind or rain-resistant material. His face was covered with a camouflage-patterned scarf. He was also wearing blue jeans and black gloves.
In addition, police released two images (shown above) of someone they call a “person of interest,” but said was not necessarily a suspect, in the Walgreens investigation. Police say they would like to talk to him.
The armed robberies this week were the 4th and 5th reported in the past two weeks in Appleton and Grand Chute. Police are not sure if the crimes are connected.
Anyone with information is asked to call Sgt. Brian Leitzinger at the Appleton Police Department at (920) 832-5541.
