Upon meeting with store employees and reviewing video footage, it was learned that at 9:57 p.m., a lone white male approximately 5 feet, 5 inches tall and weighing approximately 200-230 pounds entered the store, wearing a dark hooded sweatshirt, grey sweat pants, camouflage baseball hat, and a dark face covering/mask. The man brandished a knife and ordered the clerk to give him the money from the cash drawer.
