Police investigate robbery at Radio Shack[/b]
An armed robber got away from a Wichita Falls store with hundreds of dollars worth of electronics, plus some cash, police said.
Police got the call at 5:21 p.m. Sunday, and officers went to the Radio Shack at 3201 Kemp Blvd. to investigate the robbery, said Sgt. Joe Snyder, public information officer for the Wichita Falls Police Department.
Two employees were working when the suspect walked in the door with a handgun, Snyder said.
“He ordered one employee to sit on the floor, and the other employee to open the register,” he said. “After the registered was open, the suspect removed all the bills.”
He also went to another part of the store and grabbed three camcorders, worth $119 apiece, and six MP3 players, each valued at $150, Snyder said.
“He put all that and the cash into a black bag that he brought with him,” he said. The suspect left the store, and got into the passenger side of a silver Chevrolet Impala, which headed north on Kemp, he said.
No arrest had been made in the case as of Monday.
