Police Seek Two Suspects in Cheverly 7 Eleven Armed Robbery

The Cheverly Police Department posted a notice on December 1 seeking to identify two suspects involved in an armed robbery of the 7 Eleven convenience store at 6001 Arbor Street in Prince George's County. Police said the first incident occurred on November 27 at approximately 10:34 AM when a man described as white Hispanic male between approximately 18 to 21 years old and about 5 feet 10 inches tall and 155 pounds entered the store. That suspect was described as wearing a black hooded jacket, a black cap, gray jeans, gray New Balance shoes and carrying a black backpack. Police reported he had a silver knife.

The same suspect returned to the store later that evening at approximately 7:13 PM accompanied by a second man described as white Hispanic male approximately 18 to 21 years old, about 5 feet 8 inches tall and 150 pounds. The second suspect was described as wearing a black jacket with multi color designs, gray jeans, gray New Balance shoes and carrying a black backpack. Both were last seen on foot on the Cheverly Metro tracks moving in the direction of Landover Station. Authorities asked anyone who observes the individuals to call 911.

The sequence of two robberies at a single neighborhood corner store within one day has immediate implications for local safety and the small business environment in Prince George's County. Convenience stores often operate on thin margins and rely on steady foot traffic. Repeated incidents can depress customer visits, increase insurance and security expenditures for store owners, and strain operational hours for employees. For commuters and residents who use the Cheverly Metro station, the report underscores risks on and near transit corridors and may prompt calls for increased patrols or improved lighting and camera coverage along the tracks.

Local officials and residents now face decisions on whether to seek additional police presence during high traffic periods and to work with transit authorities on safety measures. In the short term police presence and community vigilance can reduce the immediate risk. Anyone with information on the suspects or the incidents is asked to contact emergency services by calling 911.
