The Greenville County Sheriff's Office is trying to find the man who they say robbed a store with a gun.

Investigators say the robbery happened July 12 at 10:42pm at the Plez U store on Old Dunham Bridge Road in Greenville.

The store worker says an African-Amercian man in his mid to late 40s forced his way into the business and demanded money. The robber was described as being 6'0", 190 pounds with a grayish beard. He was wearing blue jeans and a blue t-shirt at the time of the robbery.

Deputies say the Plez U worker unlocked the door to allow a customer to leave when the suspect forced his way into the store. He had a black handgun and pointed it at the worker.

The robber got money from a second employee of the store and left on foot. Witnesses say a gold four-door car - possibly a Honda Accord - left the area at the same time and direction the suspect was walking.

No one was hurt in the robbery.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Greenville County Sheriff's Office at 23-CRIME.
