Cantonment Tom Thumb Robbed
April 7, 2009
The Tom Thumb on Highway 29 in Cantonment was robbed about 12:10 this morning.
The Escambia County Sheriff’s Department was called to the store after the clerk reported that he was robbed.
The suspect was described as a black male, about 5-foot 8-inches tall wearing a jacket with a hood. The suspect fled the building and headed south, according to the store clerk. It was not known if the suspect had a vehicle.
Multiple deputies were on scene within minutes of the call, setting up a perimeter around the area. A K-9 unit attempted to track the suspect.
A deputy spotted a black male on the railroad tracks near Muscogee Road and gave chase, but the male escaped the area on foot.
The store clerk said the suspect indicated that he was armed with a gun, but the clerk never saw the gun.
There were no injuries. The incident is still under investigation by the Escambia County Sheriff’s Department.
