Crime Stoppers Crime of the Week - January 8th, 2009

Hi, I'm Officer Butch Slater, Crime Stoppers' Coordinator for Sangamon and Menard Counties.

This week Crime Stoppers is seeking information on an Armed Robbery that occurred on 12-17-08 to McDonalds at 3151 S. Dirksen. Employees report that a black male approximately 5ft 9in to 5ft 10in with a stocky build entered the business and walked toward the restrooms. The suspect then approached the counter and displayed a handgun and demanded money from the cash register. Once the suspect was given money from the register he asked where the rest of the money was. Employees were then ordered to open the next register and the suspect was given the money from the second cash register as well. Once the suspect had the money he demanded he left the business running south with the $1,015.00 he had just taken.

If you have information about this incident or other suspicious activity, you can remain completely anonymous by contacting Crime Stoppers at 217-788-8427 [1-800-397-2288], submitting a tip via the internet or using a cell phone to send a tip [type TIP672 plus your message and send it CRIMES(274637)]. You could get a cash reward of up to $1000.

Remember Crime Stoppers wants your information, not your name.
