Piedmont Police Investigating A Friday Night Robbery At The Discount Food Mart

Piedmont Police Chief Freddie Norton says officers are continuing to investigate a robbery that occurred late Friday night at the Discount Food Mart on Memorial Drive.

Norton says that the unidentified white male suspect entered the store at approximately 10:45 p.m. armed with a handgun and took an undisclosed amount of cash. He was last seen leaving the store wearing camouflage shorts, what appeared to be a green sweatshirt and a gorilla mask

The suspect left the store running south on Anniston Ave. An eyewitness lost contact with him at the intersection of Anniston Ave and Calhoun St. At this time, police do not have any vehicle information and are not certain if he even got into a vehicle at any time.

Chief Norton told WEIS Radio on Sunday afternoon that photos will be provided on Tuesday.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Piedmont Police Dept at (256) 447-9091 or on our Facebook Page.
