MIDLAND TX 10/17/2012 - On October 17th at approximately 02:52 a.m., the Midland Police Department responded to a Kent Kwik, which is located at 5311 W. Wadley in reference to an Aggravated Robbery. Upon arrival, the clerk advised that a white male, wearing a black tank top, black pants and black shoes entered the store and purchased a cigar. The male left and returned a couple minutes later. When the suspect reentered the store he walked to the back where the restrooms were and lured the clerk down the hallway. The suspect asked the clerk if he wanted to make some extra money and the clerk told him no and that he needed to leave. The suspect then bent over at the waste and stated that he was going to be sick and pulled the clerk into the men’s restroom. While in the restroom, the suspect put a torn $20 dollar bill in the clerks hand and held a knife at his head and told the clerk to go to the back room while he took some beer. The clerk went to the back room and the suspect stole 3 six packs of beer.
