A Northeast Roanoke convenience store was robbed early Thursday. No one was injured.
Police gave this account:
A man walked into the Express Stop Food Mart at 523 Orange Ave. about 4 a.m. and asked for a pack of cigarettes.
As the clerk rang up the purchase, the man told him to open the cash register and give him all the money. The clerk gave the man money from the register. The man fled, running behind a nearby motel.
No one has been arrested.
