Ann Arbor police investigating Friday robbery at Subway restaurant
A man took cash from an register at the Subway on West Stadium Boulevard in Ann Arbor Friday evening and then fled on foot, police said.
Ann Arbor police Lt. Renee Bush said the robbery occurred between 6 p.m. and 6:19 p.m. Friday at the Subway, 2410 W. Stadium Blvd. Bush said the man entered the business, reached over the counter and stole cash from the open register.
The man implied he had a weapon during the robbery, but no one saw one, she said.
The man is described as black, in his 30s to early 40s, with hair cut close to his head. He's 5 feet 10 inches to 5 feet 11 inches tall and was wearing a T-shirt, cargo pants and tennis shoes, Bush said. He was last seen on foot heading toward Collingwood.
The description of the man does not match the description of a suspect in three other robberies that occurred earlier this year in Ann Arbor, including one at the Biggby coffee shop on Stadium Boulevard.
Anyone with information on this incident is encouraged to call the Ann Arbor police anonymous tip line at 734-794-6939 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-SPEAK UP (773-2587).

I would have love to have a Nixel announcement on this one. I get all kinds from Ypsi, which does me no good.

I was wondering what happened...I saw police activity there Friday night. What in the world took so long to post this story?

If an Amber Alert was issued in this town, the child would graduate HS before we found out.

I think if I was a cash business close to I94, I would at least be getting some cameras and maybe some occasional security.

"reached over the counter and stole cash from the open register." Sounds like a crime of opportunity then, and not something that was premeditated. Hopefully they can release some security cam footage of the suspect.

Too bad we don't have some real time reporting. As in the same week!

I can't speak for the weekend, since I was out of town, but yesterday Ann Arbor police officials did not return my calls requesting information from what happened during the weekend and it wasn't until today that I was able to speak with Lt. Bush.

You could insert any day of any week of the year into it for how common these things have become.

According to AP style, the name of the day is used for the week preceding and the week following the day the story is written. So, yes, this is from July 11.
