robbery

Pittsfield Police are investigating a rash of robberies that occurred over the weekend, which they believe was the work of one person.

Love social media or hate it, it is a valuable tool used by Police to help identify criminals or add additional information to help put the bad guys behind bars.  The latest post by the Pittsfield Police Department to their Facebook page asks for the public's help for information on a robbery suspect that held up the XtraMart on Merrill Road in Pittsfield by gunpoint last Friday...

The Pittsfield Police Department is asking for the public’s assistance with a somewhat unusual investigation. Over one month ago, during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, two individuals entered a property owned and operated by Berkshire Health Systems and stole a number of computers.

A week after prosecutors argued that there were no conditions of release that could ensure the safety of the public from Taylor Bartlett, they agreed to release the city man on his own recognizance.

According to Pittsfield police, two people were arrested Friday in connection with an armed robbery at Angelina's Sub Shop on West Housatonic Street in Pittsfield.

Search dogs, surveillance video and a cab driver led to the arrest of a Lee man suspected of robbing the Berkshire Bank branch on Elm Street Monday morning in Pittsfield.
