Middletown Township, NJ - Township police are seeking information regarding the August robbery of a Route 36 gas station.
At 7:25 p.m. on Aug. 15, an unknown suspect pulled into the 76 Gas Station in the Belford section of the township and asked for $10 in fuel.
After the suspect paid the attendant, they grabbed ahold of the attendant's apron – which is where the attendant kept his currency – and then dragged the attendant toward Route 36.

The suspect made off with approximately $1,500 in cash and the nail apron, which had "Fuel One" printed on the front, police said.
