STARK COUNTY, Ohio (WOIO) - Jackson Township and Stow police are looking for the couple who robbed a Burger King restaurant and a Speedway Gas Station at gunpoint.
Jackson Township police officers said Ashleigh Mayfield, 27, and Shaun Phipps, 38, entered the Burger King at 4371 Portage Street just after 6 a.m. on Feb. 29.
Mayfield and Phipps pointed a handgun at employees and demanded the cash, before running out a rear exit, said Jackson Township police.
Stow police said Mayfield and Phipps also robbed the Speedway at 1045 Graham Road around 8 a.m. on Feb. 23.
According to officers, after grabbing cigarettes and cash, they stole the keys to an employee’s car and drove off in his silver 2016 Honda CRV, Ohio license plate GST6352.
Police have signed aggravated robbery warrants for both Mayfield and Phipps.
Officers added the couple should be considered armed and dangerous.

Thoughts? Based on local reports, Phipps and Mayfield were still at large at least as of March 2nd, 2020.
While not that it makes it ok, so far there have been only two robberies and thankfully no one was hurt. However, a handgun was displayed, and as much as I complain whenever the media refers to a couple on the run as "Bonnie and Clyde"- to me it shows a lack of creativity that they always use the same storyline- I do fear this couple being Bonnie and Clyde wannabes and committing more alleged robberies the longer they stay on the run. And that is a concern since they are already allegedly shown using a handgun in the previous incidents.
