Deputies have released a photo of a man they say demanded money from a Bradenton store clerk at gunpoint earlier this week.

The man, described as being in his 20s, wearing a white long sleeve shirt and camouflage pants, approached a clerk at the Dollar General at 6414 14th St. W. in Bradenton around 9:10 p.m. Wednesday night and demanded money, according to the Manatee County Sheriff’s Office.

Even after showing the clerk what was believed to be a gun, the employee refused to give the man money.

The suspect took off, but not before he was caught on camera.

Anyone with information on the armed robbery should call the Manatee County Sheriff’s Office 941-747-3011 or Crime Stoppers at 866-634-TIPS.
