Exxon store owner Tony Randhawa said he sighed with relief when he heard two people had been charged in Saturday's Shell gas station holdup.
So it was a shock to hear there were still robbers out there -- and that they held up his 24-hour gas station/convenience store, near the Danbury Fair mall, early Tuesday morning.
The 12:13 a.m. robbery is the seventh in a string of robberies to hit the area.
Randhawa said his gas station/convenience store was robbed by two men brandishing guns.
The men were dark skinned, had thin builds, were about 5-feet, 7-inches tall, and between 20 and 25 years old, police said.
They had the clerk on his knees, stomach to the ground, with a gun to his head, and stole his wallet and a few hundred dollars from the cash register, according to store sources.
The men wore partial face masks, gloves and dark clothes, police said.
"Detectives are piecing it together," said Danbury Police Capt. Robert Myles.

On September 26, 2007, ten plaintiffs filed suit in response to an arrest of aday laborers at a public park in Danbury, Connecticut. Plaintiffs amended their complaint on November 26, 2007.
The amended complaint states that plaintiffs sought to remedy the continued discriminatory and unauthorized enforcement of federal immigration laws against the Latino residents of the City of Danbury by Danbury's mayor and its police department.
Plaintiffs allege that the arrests violated their Fourth Amendment rights and the Connecticut Constitution because defendants conducted the arrests without valid warrants, in the absence of exigent circumstances, and without probable cause to believe that plaintiffs were engaged in unlawful activity. In addition, plaintiffs allege that defendants improperly stopped, detained, investigated, searched and arrested plaintiffs. Plaintiffs also allege that defendants violated their Fourteenth Amendment rights when they intentionally targeted plaintiffs, and arrested and detained them on the basis of their race, ethnicity and perceived national origin. Plaintiffs raise First Amendment, Due Process and tort claims.
Plaintiffs request declaratory relief, damages and attorneys fees.
