A clerk at the Baymont Suites at 72nd and Hascal was robbed at gunpoint early Wednesday morning. The crime was one of three armed robberies reported by Omaha Police.

Police said a man with a gun entered the business and demanded money. He fled on foot. Police believe a second man may have been involved who acted as a lookout.

A second armed robbery was also a home invasion near 65th and Manderson. The victim Tuesday told police she heard a noise at little before 10:00 p.m. at the front door as two people forced their way inside.

The robbers had a gun. As they searched the house the men demanded money. They took an undetermined amount of money and some personal property before leaving.

A third armed robbery happened just after 9:00 p.m. Tuesday at the Valentino's Pizza near 50th & Leavenworth. An armed man entered and demanded money. After receiving some cash he ran off.

Descriptions of the robbers in all three cases are very limited.
