An armed man who robbed a convenience store Wednesday morning told the cashier he hated to do it before leaving with about $200, according to a Denton Police Department report.
The robbery took place shortly after the store opened at 8 a.m. in the 3600 block of East McKinney Street. The cashier told officers the man followed her and her manager into the store and soon after approached the counter with a handgun, telling her to open the safe and that he hated “to do this to you,” the report states.
The manager returned from elsewhere in the store and the cashier explained the situation, she said, with the man tapping his gun on the counter. The manager opened the safe and gave him the money — about $200, the report states — and he then left the store.
Police are attempting to locate video footage from surrounding businesses, according to the report, and an investigation is ongoing.
