The Beaufort County Sheriff's Office is investigating the armed robbery of a delivery driver on Poppy Hill Road yesterday afternoon.
Just after 2:00 pm yesterday, deputies met with a 50-year-old female Quizno's delivery driver, who advised she had just been robbed at gunpoint on Poppy Hill Road. The driver stated that she had gone to 115 Poppy Hill Road to deliver an order. Upon arrival, she was summoned by an individual standing in the driveway at 117 Poppy Hill Road.
The suspect, described as a black male, approximately 5'03”, 180 lbs. wearing a dark hooded sweatshirt called her over. The driver, assuming the suspect was the person who had placed the order walked over to him. As she approached, the suspect presented a handgun and demanded she hand over all the money she had on her.
The driver complied, giving the suspect an undisclosed amount of cash. The suspect then instructed the driver to get back in her vehicle and leave, which she did. She sustained no injuries during the incident.
The Sheriff's Office is asking anyone with any information to please contact either Investigator Cpl. J. Fraser at 843-470-3267 or the Beaufort County Dispatch Center at 843-524-2777. |
