Hey, we're still ready to play back on this for cameras, but just ahead, at 20, 31 hours, practically 22 minutes ago, the offender from the 7-11 robberies swiped in at Van Buren and State CTA station, so he may still be in the loop area just for officer information.

All right, do we have an age on this guy?
00:21
Uh, 19 is what I heard, 1-9.
00:24
All right, Melosthenic, 19 years old, 6-foot, thin-billed, clean-shaven.
00:28
Yep, and then he should have the green polo over black pants.
00:32
He usually carries a black duffel bag.

We didn't see it this time, but that's his M.O.
00:37

It's going to be a male Hispanic, 19 years old, a six-foot-tall, slender build, he's clean-shaven, has a green pullover,
01:17
and possibly a black duffel bag or a crossbody.
01:20
And see what I want just for further.
01:22
It is actually a, it did read as a rail swipe in, so it was on the rail.
01:27
But we're not 100% sure if it would be Jackson or the library stop, because both of those are essentially right there.
01:33
All right, so 32 and 12, if you guys want to just keep your eyes open, possibly the Jackson or the library stop, okay?
01:41
Do we know that's on there anything?
01:42
Do we know what?
01:44
If he's arms. Alex, is this guy known to be armed?
01:46
