On 11-10-19 at approximately 9:00 p.m. The Jackson County Sheriff’s Office received a call of a robbery at the Steele City Marathon Station. During the course of the investigation Deputies learned that an unidentified male wearing a mask entered the store and demanded money. No firearm was displayed, but the suspect had his hand in the pocket of his jacket, leading the clerk to believe that he might be armed. When the clerk attempted to activate the silent alarm the suspect fled the store on foot, running around the south side of the store and back to the east. He was not able to obtain any money in the attempted robbery. Investigators believe that the suspect may have entered a vehicle before fleeing the area. Anyone with information regarding this crime is asked to contact the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office Criminal Investigations Division or Crimestoppers
at 526-5000. The Sheriff’s Office would like to thank the K-9 Tracking Teams from Jackson Correctional Institution and Apalachee Correctional Institution for their assistance in this case.
