For the second time this week, the Subway on Robinson Road in Lockport was robbed by a man wielding a knife.

The first robbery occurred around 8:30 a.m., when the suspect entered the sub shop, displayed a silver knife that may have also had a silver handle and demanded cash from the register. You can see a surveillance picture of the suspect here.

The exact same thing happened Thursday morning. State Police say shortly before 8:30 a.m., a man entered Subway, displayed a knife and demanded cash.

In both cases, the suspect forced the employee to wait in a cooler before he fled the store on foot.

In the second robbery, the man was described as white with dark eyes and a medium complexion. He is believed to be around 5'10" and 150 pounds. That is also a similar description to the suspect in Monday's robbery.

Anyone with information is asked to call State Police at 716-434-1245 or Niagara County Sheriff's deputies at 716-438-3393.
