Deputies are looking for the man that walked into a Kanawha County video game parlor Tuesday morning and demanded cash.
It happened around 10:30am at Kelly's Kafe on MacCorkle Avenue in Jefferson. Deputies say the man threatened to kill the clerk and demanded money. He didn't show a weapon, but made off with some cash.
Deputies say the suspect is a white male in his 20's, with a medium build, about 6'3" tall, blonde hair, and a tattoo on his left forearm. He was wearing blue jeans, and a multi-colored shirt possibly with florescent yellow or green Waste Management insignia. He took off in an older model small red truck, possibly a two-wheel drive Chevrolet and headed west on US 60 toward the St. Albans area.
