BELLINGHAM, Wash. (AP) — Bellingham police say a man toting a Taser may be responsible for two robberies in one week.

The first happened at a bakery outlet on Dec. 29. The second was at a gas station on New Year’s Eve.

Police spokesman Mark Young says in both incidents a man approached an employee working a cash register, showed a Taser and demanded money.

No one was injured.
