A motivated teenager allegedly robbed multiple Dallas businesses within a 50-minute window Thursday morning before being arrested by police.

Around 8:51 a.m., a man DPD believes was Joshua Mora, 19, held up the first of the six convenience stores in the Skillman-Abrams area of Dallas at gunpoint. He apparently moved from business to business before concluding the string of robberies around 9:42 a.m.

A witness at one of the convenience stores was able to provide a description of the suspect and his vehicle, as well as a possible license plate number.

A few minutes after the last robbery, police found a vehicle matching the given description and attempted a traffic stop.

After a short chase, police apprehended Mora and determined he matched the description given by the witness.

Following a preliminary investigation, police charged Mora with six counts of aggravated robbery and took him to the Dallas County jail, DPD said.
