Paramus Police Looking For Strong-Arm Robber: Report

Paramus police are looking for someone who allegedly attacked and robbed the manager of a Popeye’s restaurant early Monday morning, authorities said.

The 50-year-old woman was walking to her car after closing the restaurant when the robber came up to her, grabbed her arm, and ordered her back inside the restaurant, Police Chief Kenneth Ehrenberg told Cliffviewpilot.com. The woman screamed, escaped, and ran towards Millers Ale House, dropping her purse.

The robber might have been holding a revolver, police said.

The woman, who was not hurt, said her attacker was light-skinned, 6-foot to 6-foot-3, 23 to 30 years old, and wore a black ski mask, black running pants, and a black long-sleeved shirt.
