Police search for man in attempted robbery
Police were searching Friday for a man they say tried to rob a Martinez store.
The man entered the Dollar General store at 210 Baston Road just before 9 a.m. and pointed a semi-automatic pistol at a cashier.
He demanded that the cashier open the register but fled before the employee could comply, Columbia County sheriff's Capt. Steve Morris said.
The robbery suspect was described as black, about 6 feet tall, medium build wearing a red, black and tan jacket, a black hooded sweatshirt, a white collared shirt and black pants.
He was last seen on foot headed into the wooded area behind the store.
A sheriff's office K-9 unit was unable to immediately locate the suspect. The man did not get any money and no one was injured, Capt. Morris said.
Police accuse men of robbing 5 at gunpoint
Police are asking for the public's help in finding two teenagers accused of robbing several people last month.
Nicholas Johnson, 19, and Dequan Payne, 18, are wanted on five counts of armed robbery each, according to a Richmond County sheriff's report.
Mr. Payne is also wanted on charges of possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime and burglary.
The two entered a home on Greening Lane on Nov. 20 and stole cash and clothing from five people, according to police. Anyone with information can call (706) 821-1080.
