The other robbery locations include another Subway, 131 E. Sunset Dr., Waukesha, and a Speedway at 1600 E. Sunset Dr., Waukesha.
Sanchez left an interesting impression while making the thefts. According to criminal complaints, when he left the Subway in the town of Brookfield, he dropped a $5 and said "Thanks guys, have a good night. By the way, the name is Mike."
He stole about $230 and cigarettes from the Speedway, and about $180 from the Subway in Waukesha, according to the complaint. Officers arrested him outside his home, and found drug paraphernalia in his apartment.
