The Brunswick County, Virginia, sheriff's office is seeking help from Roanoke Valley residents in possibly identifying a person involved in two robberies of the Davis Travel Center.

A reward of up to $10,000 is possible for any information that may lead to the arrest, conviction or both of the suspect.

The reward, according to a statement released today by Sheriff B.K. Roberts, has been made through a partnership with the travel center in addition to a $1,000 reward from Brunswick Crime Solvers.

The robberies occurred on May 9 and June 20 are believed to be committed by the same person driving what Roberts described as a very clean black Lexus four-door sedan, most likely a 2007-2009 ES 300 or ES 350 model.

The car has a light interior, sunroof and seven-spoked wheels as well as a chrome package that includes the door handles. It does not have GPS or tinted windows.

The suspect description is a black male standing between 5-feet, 9-inches to 5-feet, 11-inches tall and possibly weighing between 160 to 180 pounds. He is believed to have a medium complexion and short hair.

“As the sheriff of this county, I know someone can help us identify this car or suspect and receive up to $11,000 for that assistance,” Roberts said.

 

Anyone with information is encouraged to call the sheriff's office at 434-848-3133 and ask for Roberts or the investigator on duty or Crime Solvers at 434-848-2336.
