The Dallas Police Department is asking for the public’s assistance in identifying a suspect involved in an Aggravated Robbery.

On May 31, 2019, at approximately  11:10 p.m., an unknown suspect entered  the Pizza Hut in the 2200 block of West Illinois Avenue. The suspect acted as if he was going to order a pizza, but then pulled out a dark gray handgun.  The suspect pointed the weapon at the Pizza Hut employee and stated “give me all the money”.  When the employee opened up the register, the suspect took the money and then demanded the employee to open up the safe. The employee told the suspect  she could not open the register because it was on a time lock. The suspect became very aggravated, put the gun to the employee’s head and then fled the location on foot. The suspect returned the next evening and attempted to rob the store again but was unsuccessful.

Anyone with information regarding this offense is encouraged to contact the Dallas Police Department’s Robbery Unit Detective R. Richeson at (214)671-3602 or email at rhonda.richeson@dpd.ci.dallas.tx.us.

Please take a look at the added video.  The detectives believe that the suspect in the video is the same suspect pictured above.
