Police are on the lookout for a suspect in a Monday robbery at Service Liquors on US 30, Warsaw.
Around 10:43 a.m. Monday, the owner of the store left the business and was walking to his car when a man in a ski mask grabbed the things he was carrying, including a bank deposit bag and some calendars.
The owner struggled with the man over the articles, but eventually the robber shoved the owner and took off with the bank bag.
The robber was described as approximately 5 feet, 4 inches to 5 feet, 6 inches tall, about 150 pounds, wearing a blue ski mask and a dark hooded sweatshirt with a bluish-colored vest over it.
After the man ran, the owner called 911 to report the crime.
Police with canines tracked the robber south and then east from the store. During the search, they found a blue ski mask along the tracks, but the suspect was not found.
The bank bag that was taken is a dark blue Beacon Credit Union zipper-style deposit bag with "Service Liquors" written on it. An undisclosed amount of cash was in the bag at the time of the crime.
At the time of the robbery, no weapon was shown, and the suspect did not leave in a vehicle.
The store owner was not injured in the incident.
The Warsaw police are still investigating the incident, and anyone with more information about the crime is asked to call the Warsaw Police Department's Investigations Division at 574-372-9515 or CrimeStoppers at 800-922-5378 if they prefer to remain anonymous.
