The Terrebonne Parish Sheriff’s Office is asking for the public’s help in finding the suspect(s) responsible for an armed robbery, which took place at The Dollar General Store in Schriever on April 19.
TPSO said on the above date at approximately 10:30 p.m., authorities were called to the store after a worker called and reported a robbery.
Deputies arrived at the location and the suspects had already fled the scene.
Detectives said they received information that the store had closed, but employees were still inside.
When the workers were about to lock the front door, the suspects allegedly approached them, initiating the robbery.
One of the suspects had a silver handgun and the second was allegedly carrying a black backpack.
The suspect with the gun was a male, according to the victims, and he allegedly pointed the gun at the employees and forced them to open the door so they could enter the store.
The armed suspect then allegedly threatened to shoot the store employees if they did not give up the money at the location.
The suspects led the employees through the store and to the cash register, and the employees gave the suspects an undetermined amount of cash, which was placed into the backpack carried by the second suspect.
Both suspects were dressed in all black and their faces were covered.
The armed suspect was a tall black male and the suspect carrying the backpack was shorter, and is believed to be a black female.
Anyone with information is asked to call TPSO detectives at (985) 876-2500 or Bayou Region Crime Stoppers at 1-800-743-7433.
Tips which lead to an arrest may net a cash reward.
