A man was robbed at gunpoint outside the Food Depot at Banks Station Jan. 23 after cashing his paycheck, Fayetteville police said. The two robbers fled in what was thought to be a Honda car, police said. The victim went into the grocery store at approximately 5:35 p.m. to cash his paycheck, said Fayetteville Police spokesperson Steve Crawshaw. The man exited the store and was a short distance from the door when two black males approached and began walking beside him him, Crawshaw said. One of the men produced a handgun and demanded his money, said Crawshaw. The victim handed over the money without incident, Crawshaw said. The men may have left the area in a beat-up Honda Civic or Honda Accord occupied by two other males, Crawshaw said. Crawshaw said the victim ran into the store and called police. One of the men was described as 5-feet-5-inches in height and weighing 130 pounds, wearing a white t-shirt, a black and gold jacket and blue jean shorts. The other man was thought to be 6-feet with unknown clothing, Crawshaw said. login to post comments
