Police Dept. reports
on armed robbery
By JANK WILLIAMS
On Thursday night, October 13,
the Hertford Police Department
received a call at 11:02 p.m. con
cerning an armed robbery at One
Stop Convenience Store located on
the corner of Church and Grubb
Streets, according to a report from
Chief Marshall Merritt.
Alicia Ludwig, a clerk in the store,
was in the process of leaving the
premises after locking the store for
the evening. After locking the door,
she was confronted by a black male,
approximately 5'6" to 5'7" weighing
between 145 -155 pounds, carrying
what appeared to be a 25 nickel
plated automatic pistol.
The suspect, wearing dark pants
and jacket and what appeared to be a
ski mask or stocking cap with red on
top, repeated twice "Give me the
money."
Ludwig who was carrying a bag of
trash and a paper bag containing a
TV Guide and a PERQUIMANS
WEEKLY reportedly handed over
the bag and the suspect fled on foot
down Front Street.
A witness followed the suspect
down Front Street and saw him
disappear into a yard.
Several significant items of
evidence have been recovered and
are being processed by the SBI Lab
in Raleigh.
No arrest has been made.
