<p>ROCKVILLE, MD. &#8212; It takes dedication and diligence for an armed robber to get up every day and go out on his errand of relieving small sums of cash from convenience stores, but the government just doesn&#8217;t provide criminals with enough free stuff.</p>
<p>Detectives from the Montgomery County-Major Crimes Division have arrested <strong>Ricardo Oneil Brooks</strong><strong>, age 27, of the 18700 block of Pier Point Place in Montgomery Village, </strong>for the armed robberies of numerous 7-11 and CVS stores.</p>
<p>Investigation by the Montgomery County-Major Crimes Division revealed that during these robberies, the male suspect, later identified as Brooks, would enter the store when there were few to no customers, approach an employee and display a handgun. He would demand money, taking bills and coins, and sometimes cigarettes.</p>
<p>Brooks was determined to be responsible for the below robberies:</p>
