SANFORD, Maine — The Sanford Police Department says they have arrested two individuals who were suspects in a robbery of a 7-Eleven store in Springvale Tuesday morning.
Police responded to the store at 489 Main St. in Springvale around 8:30 a.m. Tuesday after receiving a hold-up alarm. Once on scene, officers learned that a man had entered the store alone and went to buy a drink. When the clerk opened the cash register to make change, the suspect lunged toward the cash drawer and a struggle ensued between him and the clerk.
The suspect then fled the store with an undisclosed amount of cash and got into a getaway car.
The store clerk was able to get the license plate number and a description of the suspect and female driver. The suspects’ vehicle was found at the Kennebunk Service Plaza by a Maine State Police Trooper, who detained the suspects.
Gage Gagne, 23, or Sanford and Abigail Davis, 21, of Kennebunk were arrested and booked on charges of robbery, a class A felony.
They were transported to the York County Jail and have court dates for York County Superior Court in Alfred. Bail was set at $5,000 cash for Davis, and $10,000 cash for Gagne.
