TV viewers help police arrest 3 in NH robbery

The Associated Press

ALLENSTOWN, N.H. — Police in New Hampshire say two robbers dropped in from a convenience store roof hoping to evade security cameras, but their images were caught and one of them has been arrested.

Police in Allenstown said the men dropped in from the roof of the Suncook River convenience store in December and stuffed pizza delivery bags with nearly $5,000 worth of cigarette cartons.

The surveillance video was shown on WMUR-TV, leading to tips from viewers that helped them name several suspects.

One of the men was recently arrested in a bank robbery. The other two also have been jailed on unrelated charges.
