A man who robbed a convenience store early Wednesday likely was the same man who robbed the store about two weeks earlier, Tulsa police said.

The robber had his hand in a pillow and implied he was concealing a gun with it when he confronted a clerk shortly after 3 a.m. at QuikTrip, 28 N. Harvard Ave., police said. He made off with money.

No one was hurt.

The robber matched the description of a man who also had his hand in a pillow when he robbed the store July 31, police said.

The man is described as black, 29 or 30 years old and between 5 feet 10 inches and 6 feet 1 inch tall, police said. In Wednesday's robbery, he covered his face and wore a dark T-shirt, black shorts and flip-flops.

Anyone with information about him is asked to contact CrimeStoppers at 918-596-COPS or tulsaworld.com/crimestoppers.
