VIDEO: Suspect carrying AK-47 demands cash, robs Harrison Twp. Sunoco

An armed robber entered Sunoco, 3900 Salem Ave., early Sunday morning and demanded cash with an AK-47.

The robber took an unknown amount of cash from the registers, but no one was injured during the incident, according to deputies.

Surveillance video from the robbery was released by deputies Thursday.

The man fled north on foot in front of the store, then traveled west behind Sunoco, dropping his jacket and the empty cash drawer. He then got on a bike and pedaled  west on Free Pike into Trotwood to Englewood Avenue, where an employee lost sight of him.

Witnesses told police the man was 6 foot and had a thin build. He was wearing a blue flat billed hat, black Carhartt jacket, dark blue jeans and black shoes, the release read.

Deputies and surrounding jurisdictions, along with a K9, searched the area, but couldn’t locate the robber.

The robbery is still under investigation by the Special Investigations Unit of Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office.
