APD investigating Wednesday afternoon robbery on Amarillo Blvd East. No arrest at this time.
On Wednesday April 15, APD officers were sent to the 300 block of Amarillo Blvd East on a personal robbery that just occurred. Upon arrival, officers spoke with the 24 year old male victim, who stated that he had went to the CVS on Amarillo Blvd East to wire some money to a relative but found that CVS’s wire system was down. The male then went outside in an attempt to locate another business that could wire the money. He approached a B/M in the parking lot and asked for assistance. The B/M pulled out a large pocket knife, threatened the victim and stole an undisclosed amount of money from the victim’s hand. The suspect then hopped in the bed of a dark grey Isuzu PU while the driver sped away. The B/M is described as being in his 30’s, bald headed, wearing eyeglasses and wearing a black t shirt with gray dickie pants. The victim was not injured in the robbery. Anyone with information on this robbery is asked to call the Amarillo Police Department or call Amarillo Crime Stoppers at 374.4400.
