Just before midnight on Sunday, Wilkes County Communications received a call from the store clerk at the Run In store on Oakwoods Road. The clerk told officers that a black male entered the business showed a handgun and pointed it at the clerk. The suspect demanded cash and also took cigarettes and fled the scene on foot.
