Hillsborough police are asking for help from the public as authorities are investigating an armed robbery last week.
Law enforcement officials say a man armed with a firearm entered the JJ Mart on Cornelius Street in northern Hillsborough around 8:30 p.m. on Thursday, March 1. The suspect allegedly demanded money from the clerk and received an undisclosed amount of money.
Police describe the suspect as “having light skin and wearing a black hooded jacket, blue jeans, and black shoes.” Authorities are continuing to investigate the robbery by conducting interviews and analyzing surveillance footage.
Anyone with information regarding the armed robbery is asked to contact investigator Scott Chestnut at the Hillsborough Police Department at (919) 296-9535. Tips can also be submitted via email or submit an anonymous tip through the town’s online form.
