Just before 11 pm, Sheriff’s deputies responded to Dairy Queen (115 Sea Island Pkwy) in reference to a robbery
occurring moments earlier. Deputies were notified upon being flagged down by a motorist who reported being
at the drive-thru window of the store and seeing what appeared to be a robbery in progress.

Upon arrival, deputies made contact with employees who advised that the store had just been robbed by an
unknown black male armed with a handgun. Employees advised that the suspect had entered the store through a
rear door, brandished a weapon, and taken money out of the cash register.

The suspect fled the scene on foot, leaving employees unharmed. He was described as a black male between 20-
30 years of age, approximately 6’02”, 210 lbs, wearing a green jumpsuit, gloves, and a white t-shirt wrapped
around his head.
