Around 12:16 a.m., a second robbery was reported at a Petro-Canada on Clarence Street South in Brantford.
Brantford Police say a man walked into the store with a baseball bat, demanded money, and left when the clerk told him she was calling police.
Police describe that man as 6’1” tall with a stock build, and say he was wearing a camouflage coat and a balaclava.
The final robbery was reported at 12:38 a.m., at the Pioneer gas station on Colborne Street East in Cainsville, outside Brantford.
