The Grayson County Sheriff’s Office is investigating after a Caneyville convenience store was robbed at gunpoint.
Sunday night at approximately 10:30, Grayson Deputies Caleb Owens and Nick Pruitt responded to the report of an armed robbery at the Valero at 512 Morgantown Street.
The suspect, a white male, arrived at the station in a gray SUV about 30 minutes prior to the robbery. He left without incident. He returned on foot with his face covered with a gray hoodie or sweat shirt, brandished a firearm and pointed it at the clerk’s head while demanding money from the cash register. After taking the cash, he fled the area on foot, walking north toward Caneyville.
The suspect, who appeared to be in his mid-20s, has brown hair and facial hair, and his left arm is covered in tattoos. He was wearing a knee brace. Along with the gray hoodie/sweatshirt, he was wearing a black shirt and brown shorts.
He stands about five feet, ten inches tall with a slender build.
The handgun he brandished was described as “small.”
The clerk was not injured.
Anyone with information on this robbery is asked to contact the Grayson County Sheriff’s Office at 270-259-3024.
