STONEHAM — Chief James McIntyre and the Stoneham Police Department are seeking the public’s assistance with identifying the suspect in an armed robbery that occurred earlier this week in town in which the suspect brandished a syringe at a gas station clerk.

On Sunday, Aug. 25 at 11:12 p.m., Stoneham Police responded to the Mobil station on Montvale Avenue for a report of a robbery at the convenience store inside the gas station. Upon arrival, officers were met by a clerk who stated that a man came in the store and asked to use the phone and then pulled out a needle and demanded money. The suspect fled with an undetermined quantity of cash.

The suspect is described as a white male in his 20s or 30s. He was wearing a green or gray baseball cap with an orange symbol on the front and a black t-shirt with a diamond design on the front made up of dollar bills.

The surveillance footage also showed that the suspect has a unique tattoo on his left forearm just below the elbow.

If anyone has any information that could lead to the arrest of this suspect, they are urged to contact the Stoneham Police Department at 781-438-1215.

STONEHAM — Chief Matthew Grafton reports that the Stoneham Fire Department extinguished a two-alarm fire at a home this afternoon.

At approximately 1:45 p.m., Stoneham Fire received a 911 call reporting a basement fire at home on Pomeworth Street.

Ladder 1 and Engine 2 responded to the scene and found heavy smoke showing from a three-story wood frame home. Due to today’s extreme heat and size of the building, a second alarm was struck.

Crews from Winchester, Wakefield, Melrose, Reading and Woburn arrived to assist while the Saugus, Medford and Malden fire departments provided station coverage.

Firefighters first entered the basement and found no fire conditions. They then went to the first floor and encountered heavy smoke and a small fire in one of the bedrooms, which they quickly put out.

Residents of the home were outside prior to firefighters’ arrival and no one was injured.

After ventilating smoke from the entire building, crews cleared the scene just after 2:30 p.m.

“Given how hot it is today and the amount of smoke crews encountered, this fire had the potential to be extremely dangerous,” Chief Grafton said. “Thankfully the fire was small in nature and we were able to quickly get it under control and prevent extension. I want to thank all the responding companies who assisted us this afternoon.”

The cause of the fire remains under investigation by the Stoneham Fire Department, Stoneham Police Department and State Fire Marshal’s Office.
