Located in Worchester, the popular sandwich chain restaurant on Shrewsbury Street was said to have been robbed on Jan. 15, Jan. 19 and Feb. 3 by 24-year-old William Walley wielding a kitchen knife. (RELATED: Suspected Bank Robber Arrested After Slipping On Ice, Sending Cash Flying)

“In each robbery, a tall, masked male entered the store with a large kitchen knife and demanded money from the register,” police said. “After an investigation, Worcester Police Department detectives came to believe that the same male was responsible for each robbery.” (RELATED: Robbers Rappel From Best Buy Ceiling, Manage To Steal $100K Worth Of Apple Products)
