Gunman Robs a liquor Store

The Gunman Robs a liquor store

A gunman (a man) with a pillowcase over his head pointed a pistol at a clerk and fled  down an alley with $2,845 moments before police arrived at the Black Derby Liquor Store on 2311 Ripley Way. 

The gunman entered the liquor store at 7:12 p.m., police said. Bellinos triggered his silent alarm behind the desk at 7:16. p.m. Police officers Anne Fulgham and Jose Lopez answered the alarm and arrived on the scene at 7:19 as the gunman was leaving the store.

The gunman was described to be 6 feet tall and weighed 155 pounds. He was wearing a blue jeans and a dirty white T-shirt with a torn right sleeve. 

Officer Anne Fulgham shouted a warning, then fired a shot at the man, which missed, police said. The man escaped capture by running into an alleyway.


Police immediately arrived at the scene of the crime right when the gunman was just about to leave the store, police said.


Police chief Antonio Grasso said that a routine investigation of the incident would be made by the Police Internal Security Squad. 


John Paul Reinicke, who witnessed what happened, said he was walking down Ripley Way when the incident occurred. “The officer did a great job and the guy ran so fast he looked like a track star.” {Sidebar: Quote from the witness}
