Two Local Woman Arrested In Exxon Robbery



Rehoboth Beach – The Delaware State Police have arrested two persons for an armed Robbery of the Exxon Gas Station located at Coastal Hwy and John J Williams Hwy.

The incident began after two women wearing gloves, black hoodies, masks and sunglasses entered the store on Monday morning at approximately 2:40 am armed with a razor blade and handgun. They confronted the 23-year-old clerk, announced it was a robbery and demanded money from her.

The clerk complied and opened the cash register when one of the female robbers reached in the drawer and grabbed approximately $300.00. Both female suspects then attempted to flee the store when they encountered an on-duty Resort Security Officer who witnessed the robbery occur. The uniformed security officer confronted the suspects at which point the attempted to run away on foot. The security officer gave chase, apprehended both of them in the parking lot, and detained both of them until State Police arrived.

Police recovered the razor blade, money and a black Daisy CO2 BB Gun that was the handgun used in the crime. As a result of the investigation, Maria C. Summers, 25 of Rehoboth Beach and Marie E. Simmers, 24 of Milton were arrested for Robbery 1st Degree, Wearing a Disguise during the Commission of a Felony, Conspiracy 2nd Degree, Possession of a Firearm during the Commission of Felony and Possession of a Deadly Weapon during Commission of a Felony. They have been incarcerated at the Delores J Baylor Women’s Correctional Center on a $64,000 secured bail.

What is the world coming to? I worked in Nursing for 38 years and retired. I hate retirement. I would like to work again, but nobody will hire a R.N. for 2 days a week.

can we find out who the resort security officer is and offer him a job at SPD?
the guy can outrun and take down two fleeing women at the same time and hold em in place.
he probably knew the gun was not real
wow, we need him here...

the one on the left looks mean and evil, something tells me she was backup for Fatal Attraction if Glenn Close wasn't available, she's staring the camera down.
