After getting the money, the man fled in a red SUV which was last spotted traveling westbound on Wieuca Road.

Witnesses described the suspect as a black male, 20-25 years old, short, thin build, wearing black jeans, black sweat shirt, black hat and a red bandanna covering the lower half of his face, police said.
