HANOVER TWP. - Police on Tuesday night arrested two men suspected in at
least five recent area robberies. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 Although Hanover Township police confirmed the arrests, the names of the
suspects were unavailable at press time. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; An armed robbery at Turkey Hill Minit Market at 241 W. Main St. in Plymouth
on Monday evening and a robbery Saturday afternoon at Mobil Gas Station at 412
S. Main St. in Wilkes-Barre appeared similar: a thin black male about 6 feet
tall wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt tight around his face and a black puffy
jacket demanded money and cigarettes. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 The Convenient Food Mart on Pierce Street in Kingston and another store in
the West Nanticoke section of Plymouth Township were robbed Tuesday, police
said. Hanover Township also had robberies about two weeks ago they felt were
connected. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 Using vehicle descriptions from Plymouth, Hanover Township officers
arrested a black male and a white male driver Tuesday night. They were then
questioned by officers from Kingston, Hanover Township and Plymouth borough. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 ``They're probably the same guys involved in four or five (robberies) in
two or three different towns,'' said Wilkes-Barre police Lt. Paul Middleton.
``The physical description is the same, the clothing is the same and it's the
same things they're stealing.'' &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
