On April 19, 2016 at 5:20am the Racetrac Store located at 1740 SR60 E was robbed by an armed gunman. The suspect was described as a black male wearing a red hoodie tightened around his face, red gym shorts, flip flops, and was armed with a handgun. The suspect entered the store and demanded the cashiers give him the money from their cash drawers. The cashiers complied with the suspect’s orders and the suspect fled the store after getting an undisclosed amount of money. Three cashiers were working at the time of the robbery. Nobody was injured and the suspect left the store on foot.

This suspect appears to be the same suspect who robbed Pizzano’s on April 15 and CVS on April 16. Anyone who has information about any of these robberies is asked to contact Detective Alvin Maultsby at (863) 678-4223 extension 265, Detective Aubrey Davis at (863) 678-4223 extension 276, or Heartland Crime Stoppers at (800) 226-8477.
