Posted

NORTH WEBSTER - Two would-be robbers fled empty-handed early Sunday after allegedly displaying a gun inside a North Webster business.

According to North Webster Town Marshal Greg Church, two black males entered the Webster Quick Service on Ind. 13 shortly before 1 a.m. One of the men allegedly pulled out a handgun and pointed it at the clerk, who was behind the front counter.

The clerk then ran into a nearby office, slammed and locked the office door and called 911.

Nothing was taken from the business and the suspects were gone when police arrived.

Anyone with information about this incident should contact the North Webster Police Department at 834-2700.
