LOS ANGELES—Police across Southern California were seeking a lone gunman Tuesday who is wanted in connection with at least four—but possibly as many as six—robberies at 7-Eleven stores where two people were killed and three were wounded.

The robberies occurred across a five-hour span July 11—or 7/11, the day when the national 7-Eleven brand celebrates its anniversary—and prompted the parent company to urge Los Angeles-area employees to close their stores Monday and Tuesday nights for safety.
