Dunbar , Kanawha County , West Virginia

Kanawha County sheriff's deputies responded to the scene of an armed robbery that took place about 9:30 p.m. Sunday.

Metro 911 dispatchers said a woman walked into Ivy's, a video lottery parlor on Washington Street West between Dunbar and Cross Lanes, showed a gun and demanded money.

Dispatchers said she got away with about $100.

The suspect is described as a white female with sandy blonde hair, which was pulled back in a pony tail.

Police said she was driving a gray 2011 Toyota Corolla with Ohio tags and a “#1 in Cleveland" license plate on the front, possibly heading toward Dunbar or Charleston.

Anyone with information on the robbery is asked to call police.

Eyewitness News will continue to update this story as we receive more information.
