Breaking News from Memphis: A Late Night Burglary Shakes Local Convenience Store
In the early hours of February 10, 2025, a well-planned burglary occurred at the Save A Stop 2 convenience store located in the heart of Orange Mound, Memphis. As the clock struck 3:31 a.m., four suspects made their move, and what happened next is hard to believe!
A Deep Dive into the Crime
When the suspects entered the store, they had one thing on their minds: stealing as much as they could. Authorities reported that an astonishing $8,000 worth of tobacco products vanished from the shelves, along with an additional $1,800 in cash from the register. You can just imagine the chaos that must have ensued in that quiet little corner of Pendleton Street!
The Pursuit of Justice
Thanks to the vigilant security cameras positioned throughout the store, images of the suspects are now in the hands of the police. However, despite these important visual clues, no arrests have been made as of this time. The Memphis Police Department (MPD) is working tirelessly to crack this case, but they need the community’s help to do so. If you have any information about how this might have gone down or if you recognize the suspects, please reach out to Crime Stoppers at (901) 528-CASH. Every little bit helps!
The Escape Route
As the suspects made their getaway, they fled the scene in a 2013 Hyundai Elantra, which doesn’t seem to have been a regular choice for robbers. What’s even more alarming is that this vehicle, bearing the license plate BQN-6201, was reported stolen before the incident took place. This indicates a troubling trend that might involve organized crime, but luckily, the police are hot on their trail.
The Bigger Picture
The implications of this crime extend far beyond just one store. Convenience stores serve as vital hubs in communities, offering essential goods and services. When incidents like this occur, it doesn’t just affect the owner; it impacts customers who rely on these businesses for their daily needs. Every robbery creates a ripple effect, shaking the sense of security that residents, shop owners, and employees should feel in their own neighborhoods.
Community Response
Residents in the Orange Mound area are understandably rattled. Local businesses are now more alert than ever, and many are considering additional security measures to safeguard their properties. It’s crucial for everyone to keep their eyes peeled and work together as a community. Watching out for one another can deter criminal activities and foster a supportive environment.

The investigation into this brazen burglary continues as MPD follows leads and reviews all available evidence. As they dig deeper, more updates will emerge regarding any potential arrests, as well as measures being taken to prevent further incidents. Community members are encouraged to stay connected and informed about developments, as this event highlights the need for heightened awareness in our neighborhoods.
