CENTRAL NYACK – Clarkstown
Police are looking for a man who held up a clerk at the Nyack Food Mart
at 4 Waldron Avenue in Central Nyack Wednesday night.
The robber, armed with a semi-automatic handgun, entered the store around
11:30 p.m. and pointed the weapon at the 48-year-old male clerk and two
customers. He ordered them to go to the rear of the store and struck one
customer, who appeared to have resisted the man.
The suspect ordered the clerk to empty the cash register and then fled
with an unknown amount of cash, but not before he struck the clerk in
the head with the gun.
Both customers left the store before police arrived and the clerk refused
medical attention.
The suspect was described as being black, and was wearing a blue hoodie,
black pants and gray sneakers.
