A man robbed a West Harris Street restaurant just before 9 p.m. Monday, Aug. 24 with a short-barreled revolver, fleeing south on Albee then west on West Everding with an undisclosed amount of cash.

The man was described as white with a bushy blond-gray mustache and wore dark jeans and a white full-face motorcycle helmet with a clear visor. He was in his 30s or 40s, 5'10”, and appeared to weigh more than 200 pounds.
