Niagara Falls Police responded to Subway on the 2600 block of Pine Avenue around 12pm on May 6th after reports of a robbery.

Upon arrival, officers spoke to an employee who stated that at approx. 10:20am an unknown black male entered the restaurant and began filling up a white garbage bag with drinks from the cooler. The employee said she was standing behind the counter and asked the male, "you’re just going to take our drinks?”
