Pittsburgh police are investigating three robberies at gas stations that happened between Sunday night and early Monday morning, police spokesman Chris Togneri said.

In all three cases, men wearing dark clothing entered the stations and demanded cash. At least one of the men had a gun, Togneri said.

The first robbery was reported at 9:50 p.m. Sunday in the 4000 block of Liberty Avenue on the border of Bloomfield and Lawrenceville. Another was reported at 11:30 p.m. Sunday in the 4000 block of Beechwood Boulevard in Greenfield. The third was at 2 a.m. Monday in the 2900 block of Banksville Road in Banksville, Togneri said.

Police are interviewing witnesses and reviewing any video from the stations that were robbed and are investigating to find out if they are related, Togneri said.
