Court documents show that Eddie Eugene Robinson stole thousands of dollars in cash and lottery tickets between Nov. 5 and Nov. 29 of 2023.

Robinson committed burglaries at the following stores and restaurants:

  • Nu Beauty Supply store on Sewells Point Road, where he stole cash and merchandise
  • George’s Seafood on Chesapeake Boulevard, where he stole cash and an iPad
  • Quick Serve Food Store on Sellger Drive, where he stole cash and Virginia Lottery tickets

Surveillance footage from each of the burglaries captured Robinson wearing the same hooded sweatshirt, medical-style face mask and duck boots.

An investigator with the Virginia Lottery flagged the serial numbers of the tickets during the Nov. 29 burglary in the lottery’s database. Lottery investigators were alerted when Robinson attempted to cash one of the stolen tickets.
