The robber grabbed an undisclosed amount of currency and ran. He was last seen heading southbound on Frankford Avenue. The employee was not injured.
The robber was described as black, 40 years old, 5 feet 7 inches tall and stocky with a beard, a black skull cap, a dark hoodie and blue jeans. Visit the Philadelphia Police channel on YouTube.com to see surveillance video. Call 215–686-TIPS or text to PPD TIP to report information. ••
