The Prince William County police are looking for the suspect who robbed a Manassas gas station at midnight Thursday.

Soon afterward, at 12:05 a.m. Friday, police responded to the robbery scene, an Exxon service station in the 8000 block of Sudley Road (Route 234), according to a police report. The clerk, a 38-year-old Manassas man, told the officers that a white male with his face concealed displayed a black revolver and took cash from the register.

The suspect fled the scene on foot, running south toward an adjoining shopping plaza, the police said. He is described as a white male, 5 feet 8 inches tall and weighing 145 pounds, wearing a gray hoodie sweatshirt with white stripes, blue jeans and black shoes. His face was covered by a blue bandana.
