MEMPHIS, TN (abc24.com) - Memphis police are looking for the suspect that cased out a Family Dollar Store and then came back on hour later to rob it.

The robbery happened on the 2900-block of Summer Avenue near Tillman Street just before 8 p.m. on Friday, June 1. A lone black male suspect came in with a bandana over his face and armed with a handgun demanding money. He ran off with an undisclosed amount of cash before police arrived.

Store surveillance video clearly shows the suspect an hour before the robbery walking around the store. He's described as between 20-25 years old, about 5'10" with a thin build and dark complexion.

Anyone who can identify this suspect should call CrimeStoppers at (901) 528-CASH (2274). You can also submit your tip at 528cash.org, or text the word AWARD to 274637 (CRIMES). You will remain anonymous, and you could be eligible to receive a $1,000 cash reward.
