On January 29 at approximately 9:24 p.m. the Calvert Control Center received a 911 call from a cashier of the Lusby Shell gas station who advised he had been robbed of money at knife point.

Deputies from the Calvert County Sheriff’s Office responded to the scene and set up a perimeter while contact was made with the complainant.  Sr./Trp. K. Greggs of C.I.T. responded to the scene and assumed the investigation.

The complainant/victim advised a white male, with gray hair and a big nose, wearing light colored blue jeans and a black bandana covering the lower half of his face, came inside the store.  The unidentified male stated to the victim, “give me all your money” and brandished a knife.  The suspect followed the victim around the counter where the victim opened the cash register and handed the suspect approximately two hundred dollars. The suspect then fled the store on foot heading south on H.G. Trueman Road. 

Surveillance video shows the suspect entering the store wearing what appeared to be a gray in color hooded sweatshirt with the hood over his head, light colored blue jeans and a white in color bandana or hospital mask covering the lower part of his face.  The suspect followed the victim around the counter and the victim handed the suspect the cash. The suspect then exits the store, and walks south through the wooded area toward Jake and Al’s Restaurant.  No suspect vehicle was identified.  The victim advised the suspect was possibly in the store the previous day at approximately the same time.   A K-9 track was conducted with negative results. 

The robbery is being investigated by Sr./Trp. K. Greggs of C.I.T.  Anyone with any information is asked to contact him at 410-535-1600, extension 2598.
