An employee at the Chevron told police they were confronted by a male armed with a gun who demanded money. The suspect jumped the counter and entered a back room. After leaving the back room with an undermined amount of cash, he exited the front entrance and fled on foot down Marietta Road. Officers arrived and searched the area but were unable to locate the suspect.
The suspect is described as a Hispanic or possible white male with a slim build. He spoke in English and Spanish and had a tattoo on his left forearm.
Canton Detectives are reviewing video surveillance from the service station and are asking anyone with information about the robbery or who might have seen something suspicious to please call 911.
