Man arrested in string of holdups

Rutland City Police say they have arrested a man in connection with one of three robberies that took place Monday night and yesterday. 18-year-old Brennan Bigelow will be arraigned today in Rutland District Court. He was held overnight at the Rutland jail on $150,000 bail. State Police said the robbery spree began Sunday night when a man with a gun held up the Shell station in Rutland Town. Early yesterday morning, Cumberland Farms on South Main Street was held up by a man with a similar handgun. Later in the morning, Mac's Market on North Main Street was robbed at gunpoint. The gunman got into a car that was described to officers by a store employee. Police stopped the car and the man, later identified as Bigelow, was arrested. No one was injured in any of the robberies.
