Chattanooga police investigators are searching for suspects in two robberies Thursday in which a gold or beige sedan was used as a getaway vehicle.
The first robbery took place just before 1:30 p.m. at Le Nails, 5308 Brainerd Road. Three men came in and held up employees, taking an undisclosed amount of cash before leaving.
The vehicle was described as possibly beige, said Lt. Bobby Rodgers, who oversees the Chattanooga Police Department’s property crimes, fraud and pawn unit.
Armed robbers struck about an hour later at Tienda el Paraiso, 2602 E. Main S., and fired a shot as they left. The getaway car was described as a gold Toyota.
No one was injured. It’s possible the crimes are related, police said.
