SCPD investigating armed robbery at Calverton gas station

Suffolk County police are actively investigating the scene of an armed robbery which occurred Wednesday night at a Hess gas station on Edwards Avenue in Calverton, authorities said.

Riverhead police said they received a 911 call just before 8 p.m., however the incident took place just outside town police jurisdiction.

The Brookhaven/Riverhead border marks the jurisdiction border between the Riverhead and Suffolk County Police Departments. The Hess station, just off exit 71 of the Long Island Expressway, sits less than a quarter-mile from the Riverhead Town border.

Suffolk County Police Department detectives are investigating, county police said.
