The man went behind the counter, pointed a gun at a clerk and demanded that the cash register be opened.

The clerk opened the register. The gunman grabbed cash and fled on foot.

Police used a dog to attempt to follow the suspect. He was described as black, 6-feet-tall and skinny. He had no facial hair.
