Memphis Police are asking for help identifying a suspect in at least three robberies and attempted robberies, two of them at the same business just a couple weeks apart.

Police say Monday, July 9th at about 11:30 p.m., the same suspect returned to the CVS, robbing it at gunpoint again. He again took money from the register and took off.
