Convenience store robbed
From Staff Reports
Perry police are searching for an armed robber who held up a convenience store last week.
The suspect apparently entered the Race Trac on 1515 Sam Nunn BouleVard and sprayed three
people behind the counter with some type chemical, said Capt. Heath Dykes.
An undetermined amount of money was taken.
The suspect was armed with a handgun and is described as a white male wearing a brimmed hat
and dark colored jacket.
He fled the scene in a white car, believed to be a Crown Victoria, bearing a Florida tag.
Anyone with information should contact Detective Brian Emmons at 988-2821.
