A 44-year-old Manchester man already in custody in connection with an Armed robbery at a local Walgreens has been charged in connection with a second robbery at the same store nearly two weeks earlier.

Seth Skillin was taken into custody for allegedly robbing the Walgreens at 227 S. Main St. on July 9, according to a news release from the Manchester Police Department.
During their investigation, detectives linked Skillin to a similar robbery at the same location that occurred on June 27, the news release stated.
“In both incidents, the suspect entered the store, went directly to the counter, displayed a knife and demanded money,” the news release stated. “After each robbery, he fled on foot.”
Surveillance footage revealed that Skillin was wearing different clothing shortly after. Officials found the discarded clothing in the area.
Skillin has a prior robbery conviction from Hillsborough County Superior Court in 2003 and now faces additional charges of robbery and being a felon in possession of a deadly weapon.
Skillin is also facing one count of robbery after Route 102 Gas in Londonderry was robbed at knifepoint on July 8.
Skillin is being held at the Valley Street jail and was booked in absentia on the new charges.
