The Toomsuba Shell Service Station was the target of another armed robbery early Saturday.
Maj. Ward Calhoun of the Lauderdale County Sheriff's Department said two suspects are in custody, but have not been charged.
At about 3:30 a.m., a suspect described as a black man of average height and weight robbed the store with a handgun. Calhoun said the robber hid his face with some of his clothing and left on foot after the robbery.
The service station was last robbed two Saturdays ago, in much the same way.
He said anyone with information about the robbery should call CrimeStoppers at 917-8888.
