Deputies are looking for the man that walked into a Kanawha County video game parlor Tuesday morning and demanded cash.
It happened around 10:30am at Kelly's Kafe on MacCorkle Avenue in Jefferson. Deputies say the man threatened to kill the clerk and demanded money. He didn't show a weapon, but made off with some cash.
Deputies say the suspect is a white male in his 20's, with a medium build, about 6'3" tall, blonde hair, and a tattoo on his left forearm. He was wearing blue jeans, and a multi-colored shirt possibly with florescent yellow or green Waste Management insignia. He took off in an older model small red truck, possibly a two-wheel drive Chevrolet and headed west on US 60 toward the St. Albans area.
If you have any information that could help in the investigation, call the Kanwaha Bureau of Investigation at 304-357-1069.
