Cloquet (trfnews.i234.me) – A terrifying armed robbery unfolded early Saturday morning at the Kwik Trip located at 900 Washington Avenue in Cloquet, Minnesota.
At approximately 4:39 a.m., two masked male suspects, both about 6 feet tall and wearing dark hoodies and pants, entered the store. One suspect carried a gun, and the duo demanded cash, fleeing the scene with an undisclosed amount. One wore white tennis shoes and light-colored gloves, the other had dark shoes and gloves, and carried a brown bag.
Police initiated a K-9 search and set up a perimeter, but the suspects were not located and are believed to have escaped in a vehicle.
