Another robbery occurred last week – only this time the targets were local convenience stores and not students.
Sav-a-Step Food Mart, located at 1927 S. Fourth St., was robbed last Thursday.
The clerk on duty at the time of the robbery told Louisville Metro Police that at approximately 7:15 a.m. the suspect flashed a large black and chrome handgun and demanded the money in the drawer.
The suspect was described as a black male between 5-foot-11 and 6-foot-1, around 225 pounds with dark spots and bumps on his face.
The individual was reportedly wearing a black tobogan, grey hooded sweatshirt, either jeans or sweat pants and white tennis shoes. He was reported as driving off in a 1980s silver Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme with 18- or 20-inch chrome wheels.
The Department of Public Safety Crime Log stated that an individual of the same description is also a suspect in a robbery that occured 10 minutes earlier at the Dairy Mart located at 3400 Taylor Blvd.
Anyone with information pertaining to the case can contact DPS at 852-6911.
