Gray police asks for help identifying armed robbery suspect

The Gray Police Department is asking for the public's help identifying a man accused of robbing the local Subway restaurant last month.

A man entered the West Clinton Street eatery with a pistol just before 9:30 p.m. Dec. 28, according to a post on the department's Facebook page.

A Mini Cooper "S" soft-top convertible, either gray or silver, was spotted in the area at the time of the robbery, according to the post by Police Chief Adam Lowe.

Maj. Chris Williams said the man, described as 6 feet tall and white, fled with about $140 in cash.

"We're tracking down quite a few leads, but we're still asking for any assistance if anybody might recognize him," Williams said. "The vehicle is going to be a key factor in this."

An artist's rendering of the suspect was completed with help from witnesses, Williams said.

Anyone with information about this case is asked to call the Gray Police Department at 986-5554, the Jones County Sheriff's Office at 986-3489 or Macon Regional Crimestoppers at 877-68-CRIME.
