PALESTINE \u2014 Our news partner, KETK, reports that a search is underway for a suspect in a Sunday evening robbery at knife-point in Palestine. According to the Palestine Police Department, a man entered the Kwik Stop Convenience Store at 704 W. Palestine Ave. at around 10:40 p.m. with a knife and threatened the clerk, demanding money from the register.<\/p>\n
\u201cAfter the clerk complied, the offender attempted to force the female clerk to leave the store with him,\u201d Palestine PD said. \u201cShe refused and the male fled on foot, southbound on North Howard Street, escaping with an undisclosed amount of cash.\u201d<\/p>\n
Officials said the suspect is a black male wearing a mask, black pants, and shoes with white soles. He was also wearing a black hooded sweatshirt with red, white, and black Viking head logo on the front, which was identified as the logo for Fleming Middle School in Houston. The suspect had a gray and brown backpack featuring a red tag with a white print at both the right shoulder, and on the lower right portion of the rear of the bag.<\/p>\n
