Officers from NPD and surrounding departments responded immediately and were advised by dispatchers from the Hamilton County Communications Center that the suspect had left the scene in a vehicle prior to police arrival. Several officers canvassed the area while other officers continued to the scene. Officers were unable to locate the alleged suspect’s vehicle.
Based on statements from witnesses, video footage and other potential evidence at the scene, it would appear that a male subject came into the business and held several employees and patrons at gunpoint. Witnesses stated that the suspect demanded money from each of them and all of the victims complied. The suspect retrieved an undetermined amount of cash from the victims before fleeing the scene. There were no injuries reported by either patrons or employees.
Investigators from the criminal investigation division processed the crime scene and checked with nearby businesses for security video footage. The suspect has been described as a white male, skinny, and wearing a black coat and black shoes.
