The Atmore Police Department is looking for a suspect in an alleged robbery of a downtown business, according to officials.

Public Information Officer Sgt. Darrell McMann said in a release the APD is looking for a black male, approximately 6-foot-3 with a medium build. McMann said the suspect was wearing an extra large lighter colored shirt, dark colored pants and casual style shoes which were possibly grey in color.

McMann said on Oct. 15, APD officers responded to New York Fashions on North Main Street in reference to a robbery.

“The victim was found by a customer who immediately called 911,” McMann said. “Responding officers arrived on the scene and contacted the victim inside the business with a head wound. It appeared the suspect attempted to restrain the victim but was unsuccessful.”

McMann said the victim was treated and release after medical treatment.

McMann said investigators are following up on leads and checking with nearby businesses for any video footage of the suspect.

McMann said the suspect was also wearing a black face mask.

Anyone with information on the suspect, contact the APD at 251-368-9141.
