Recognize this man? Deputies say he robbed a Circle K at gunpoint

Deputies are seeking a man they say robbed a Circle K convenience store at gunpoint.

Surveillance video from the Circle K in the 2300 block of Augusta Road shows the suspect robbing the store about 2 a.m. Wednesday, according to the Lexington County Sheriff’s Department.

Investigators said the suspect – armed with a semi-automatic pistol – left the store and fled on foot across the parking lot of a nearby business.

Detectives say a car that was spotted leaving the Circle K parking lot shortly before the robbery might be connected to the suspect.

Authorities are asking anyone with information on the incident to call Crimestoppers at 1-888-CRIME-SC or submit a tip at www.LexingtonSheriff.com.
