A masked man with a pistol tried to rob an auto parts store Saturday morning on Vineville Avenue.

But the Auto Zone clerk refused the man's demands to hand over money, and the suspect fled the store empty handed, according to a Bibb County Sheriff's Office news release.

No one was hurt in the 10 a.m. armed-robbery attempt at 3185 Vineville Ave.

The black suspect was described as being medium height and wearing dark clothes.

Anyone with information about the incident is urged to call the Bibb County Sheriff’s Office at 478-751-7500, or Macon Regional Crimestoppers at 1-877-68CRIME.
