RICHLAND TOWNSHIP, Pennsylvania -- Police said two women dressed as ninjas were responsible for the hold-up of a Richland Township gas station Saturday morning using a samurai sword.
Police said the two women -- one with a dagger, and the other carrying the sword -- entered a Sunoco station in the 5600 block of Route 8 at about 3 a.m.
According to police, the women tied up the clerk and robbed the store of cash, cigarettes and lottery tickets."They were all covered in black and carrying swords, so it did appear that they were dressed like ninjas," said Chief Robert Amman of the Northern Regional Police Department. "Swords, daggers could be used to seriously harm victims, so this is a very serious crime."
Police said the clerk was not harmed and is OK. No arrests have been made and no suspects have been identified. Rick Lekki said it was hard for him to believe that a robbery occurred across the street from his business, R and J's bar.
"It's shocking. Things like that just don't happen out here. I just can't believe it happened," Lekki said.
