Police searching for Subway armed robbery suspect

Lawrence police are searching for a suspect related to an armed robbery of a Subway along the 1600 block of W. 23rd St. Monday morning.

Sgt. Ted Bordman of the Lawrence Police Department said a clerk was in the process of opening the store around 7 a.m., when a male walked in and presented a pistol. He demanded money, took the clerk’s phone and fled on foot.

The suspect is described as a black male, 23 to 35 years of age, wearing a black “Carhartt-type jacket,” and a black baseball cap with a red brim. He is still at large, Bordman said Monday evening.
