CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The man who robbed a restaurant in Cleveland's Detroit-Shoreway neighborhood and was captured by employees may have targeted the same business twice in four days, records say.

Phillip Robinson, 22, of South Euclid is charged with second-degree robbery in the Monday robbery. Employees at the Local West restaurant on Detroit Avenue near West 74th Street told police that they were certain Robinson was the person who previously robbed their business, according to Cleveland police reports. No charges have been filed against him in any other robberies, court records show.

Robinson was arrested about 4 p.m. Monday after he went into Local West and handed a note to a worker that said "Give me the money now and no one die," the police report says.

Robinson had his hand in his waistband, as if indicating he was armed, the report says. The worker prepared to hand over cash, but two other employees could see that Robinson had no gun and they told her not to give him money, the report says.

Robinson appeared to be nervous and ran from the shop, the report says. Employees ran after him and took him to the ground about a block away in a Burger King parking lot, the report says. They pinned him there until police arrived.

A man who employees believe was Robinson robbed the restaurant around the same time on Friday, according to another report. The man acted as if he had a gun and demanded cash from the employees by giving them a threatening note, the report says. He made off with $260 that day, the report says.

Robinson appeared for arraignment Wednesday in Cleveland Municipal Court, where his case was bound over to a Cuyahoga County grand jury and his bond was set at $25,000, court records show.
