DENVER (KDVR) — Jefferson County deputies are looking to identify a robbery suspect who was caught on camera pulling out a handgun and threatening a gas station clerk.

On Feb. 17, Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office deputies were called to an Exxon gas station at 18561 U.S. 40 in Golden on reports of a robbery.

Deputies said the suspect walked into the gas station, went up to the counter and asked for cigarettes.

Video surveillance shows the cashier turning his back to grab the cigarettes. As he does, the suspect can be seen pulling out a black handgun and pointing it at the cashier.

According to deputies, the suspect told the cashier to give him the money and said he did not want to hurt anyone.

The suspect then fled from the gas station.

“The suspect’s footprints lead to vehicle tracks, indicating the vehicle may have been a “dually” pickup truck,” said the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office.

Anyone with information on the suspect or the robbery is asked to call the sheriff’s office tip line at 303-271-5612 or email jcsocrimetips@jeffco.us.
