Police are searching for a man wanted for an armed robbery of a Jackson Heights gas station Monday night.

On April 13, at around 11:40 p.m., the suspect entered the BP Gas Station, located at 75-15 Northern Blvd. and wielded a firearm at staff, according to police.

I am wondering if it the same suspect who robbed the bank twice. Maybe they got a haircut or the curly red hair is up in a ponytail. How tall is the suspect? Can we get a full body pic so we can look at the pants below the belt line.
