Investigators with the Woodstock Police Department continue to ask citizens to help them identify the man responsible for the armed robbery of a store at the Outlet Shoppes at Atlanta.

The incident occurred around 10:30 a.m. April 28 at Jared Vault, which is at 915 Ridgewalk Parkway. Woodstock officers were dispatched to the store about a half-hour later in response to the call about the robbery.

Employees at the store said a middle-age “heavy-set black male” wearing khaki pants, a plaid shirt and a caddy-style hat came into the store and looked around briefly before brandishing a handgun, Woodstock police spokesperson Brittany Duncan said.

Employees complied with the suspect’s demands, and he left the business with an undisclosed amount of merchandise. Additionally, police continue to look for a woman who was in the store at the time of the incident.

Duncan said the unknown female, initially thought to be a witness, has been classified as a ”person of interest” in the case.

Crime Stoppers of Greater Atlanta is offering a reward of up to $2,000 for any tips that lead to the arrest and indictment of those responsible for this incident, Duncan said.

Anyone with information on the incident, the male suspect or the female witness is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 404-577-TIPS or 404-577-8477. Callers can remain anonymous.
