Earlier this week, Lawrence Police issued a social media plea for help to locate two suspects they say allegedly used a crow bar to pry open the door of the Gulf gas station at 233 Winthrop Ave. and take the cash register and lottery tickets just before 4 a.m. on June 28. According to police, the suspects drove a blue Dodge caravan.
Methuen Police Chief Joseph E. Solomon tells WHAV the same suspects are sought in connection to a break-in at the Haverhill Street Mobil station around 3 a.m. that same day.
The Haverhill Police Department is also investigating a similar reported break at the Bradford Mobil gas station at 789 South Main St. that happened on June 22 at 4:35 a.m., Capt. Stephen J. Doherty told WHAV.
