Greer Police are investigating a robbery that scared customers at a Waffle House early Wednesday morning. Officers were called to the restaurant at 1509 SC-101 South off Interstate 85 just after 3:00 a.m. Wednesday. A customer told News Channel 7, he was eating when two men stormed in, fired a shot, and ordered everyone to the back of the restaurant.
He said one of the robbers held him at gunpoint. The men got away with his wallet, cell phone, and cash from the register. He did not want to talk on camera because he was afraid for his safety now that the suspects have his belongings.
According to Greer Police the suspects entered the restaurant wearing masked and armed with a shotgun and a pistol. They also had a pair of shears. The suspects fired one shot from the shotgun into the oven, narrowly missing the cook.
The police say the suspects are two males in their 20's. One is approximately 6’2” and the second is approximately 5’9”.
Greer Police left the scene in a grey/silver vehicle without hubcaps. If you have information call the Greer Police Department at 864-848-2151.
