Over a two month period, a Missouri man robbed 5 different businesses and now he’ll have lots of time to think about the error of his ways as he’s been given 34 years in prison after being convicted of his crimes.
The FBI in St. Louis, Missouri recently shared the word from the Eastern District of Missouri US Attorney’s Office about the conviction of a St. Louis County man who robbed 5 different businesses near the end of 2023. They say that Ronald O. Perkins, 30, of Black Jack, Missouri first robbed a gas station on Riverview Drive in St. Louis on September 8, 2023. On November 8, he robbed a gas station in Richmond Heights grabbing cash and a pack of cigarettes. Two hours later, Ronald stole cash from a 7-Eleven on Hoffmeister Avenue in St. Louis. Then, 4 days later he pulled off another robbery of a gas station on Fee Fee Road in St. Louis County. For the grand finale, Mr. Perkins robbed a liquor store on St. Louis Road in Collinsville on November 8, 2025.
The press release says Ronald O. Perkins would often bang his gun on the counter while demanding cash from his victims and would also point his weapon at employees.
