The Vicksburg Police Department (VPD) is seeking the public’s help in identifying the man authorities say robbed the Walgreens on Halls Ferry Road Friday night.
“At approximately 9:23 p.m., a white male entered the Walgreens drug store at 3341 Halls Ferry Road and demanded that the cashier give him the money from the cash register,” VPD explained in a statement. “After she did, the suspect left on foot, running behind the store.”
VPD is actively searching for the suspect, who is described as a white male last seen wearing a dark-colored, long-sleeved shirt, brown cap and light-colored trousers. VPD said the suspect did not brandish a weapon during the robbery.
Tuesday, VPD Sgt. Jerrold Hayes said the investigation is still active and the search continues for the suspect seen in the video footage.
Hayes said anyone with information about his identity and/or whereabouts is asked to contact the VPD at 601- 636-2511 or Crime Stoppers at 601-355-TIPS (601-355-8477). All calls are confidential.
