A man pulled out a gun and announced a robbery at a Wawa convenience store in Northeast Philly early Friday morning.
The gunman, who was wearing a dark hooded sweatshirt, held up the Wawa at Cottman and Rockville avenues in the Burholme section of the city around 3:15 a.m., according to police.
The armed robber stole $1,000 and then ran from the store, said authorities, who added the suspect was last seen running toward Burholme Park.
No employees were hurt and an investigation is underway.
Anyone with information about the robbery is urged to contact police.
