UPDATED @ 6:50 AM

The actual armed robbery occured at HOBO Pantry on North Oates and Powell Street. Dothan Police were swiftly on the scene with day and night shift officers.

Dothan K-9 quickly deployed and suspect tracked to the 200 block of Headland Avenue. The suspect resisted and the K-9 Officer and other officers apprehended the suspect.

The suspect was extremely disorderly cussing police. Dothan Fire and Pilcher Ambulance  called to the scene.

The suspect was treated by medics but transported to SAMC by police. The suspect kept mouthing to police to "carry me to 210". That is the address of Dothan Police.

Well sir, this is a felony. You will be carried to 901, which is the county jail when they finish with you at 210.

GREAT JOB to night shift and day shift Dothan Police. Quick, swift response. Also to Dothan 911 Center with prompt suspect information. All systems worked great this morning.
