A Centralia gas station was robbed at gunpoint early this morning.
Officers responded to a 5:10 a.m. call to the Chevron at 1000 block of Harrison Avenue, but didn’t find a suspect, according to the Centralia Police Department. No injury has been reported.
Police were told a man in his 20s entered the business, asked for cigarettes and then displayed a handgun and demanded money. The clerk complied, according to police.
The subject fled on foot and a track by a police dog was conducted but ended at the freeway, according to police.
The suspect was described as a white male with light facial hair, about 5-feet 9-inches tall and weighing about 175 pounds.
