Investigators say the man said he had a gun, but he never displayed a weapon.
Police say he demanded cash and left with an undisclosed amount of money.
While police were investigating that case, officers were called to the CVS pharmacy on Market Street after an attempted robbery. Police say the man left empty-handed and didn’t receive any cash in that incident.
