Henderson police seek suspect in armed robbery of Subway

Henderson police asked for the public’s help in identifying an armed robber who hit a fast food restaurant last week.

The man robbed the Subway, 2620 N. Green Valley Parkway, near Sunset Road on March 2. He entered the restaurant about 2 p.m. and sat down at a table to drink a soda. After almost an hour, he walked to the cash register to buy a bag of potato chips, police said.

When the clerk opened the register, the man pulled a handgun, grabbed the cash and ran, police said.

The robber was a Hispanic man, about 20 years old, 5 feet 10 inches tall and between 150 to 170 pounds. He was wearing blue jeans, a black jacket, a blue bandana on his neck and a black baseball cap.

Anyone with information can call Henderson police at 267-4750 or leave anonymous tips with Crime Stoppers at 385-5555 or www.crimestoppersofnv.com. Tipsters who contact Crime Stoppers could be eligible for a cash reward.
