For the second time in a week, robbers struck two 7-Eleven stores in Montgomery County and stole ATMs in what police call “smash-and-grabs.”It’s not immediately clear if the same thieves were involved in both incidents. Montgomery County Police said the crimes are “similar to a number of other ATM robberies that have happened recently in the D.C. region. The latest incident happened just after 3 a.m. Thursday when two people went into a 7-Eleven store along the 12200 block of Tech Road near U.S. 29 in the Calverton area of Silver Spring. There were four similar incidents in March and April in Prince George’s County.
