ALBANY --
The owner of a store robbed late Saturday night is trying to get justice by offering a reward for information leading to an arrest.

A black male walked into the Homerun Foods on Gillionville Road around 10:15 p.m. on  Saturday, jumped the counter and took money out of the register before he fled on foot.

Owner Jeff Lanier is now offering $2,500 to the person who can provide information that leads to the arrest of the man. Lanier says something has to be done to stop this and if there’s anything his store can do to help, they’re going to do it.

If you have any information on this case, contact the Albany Police Department or leave an anonymous tip with Crime Stoppers at (229)436-TIPS, that’s (229)436-8477.
