A gunman robbed the Dunkin' Donuts on Elkton Road Tuesday night, Newark police said.

Lt. Brian Henry said the lone suspect walked into the store at approximately 7:50 p.m. carrying a short rifle or shotgun and demanded money from a 55-year-old male employee.

The employee gave the suspect money from the cash register and from his wallet, and the suspect fled from the store, located at 1142 Elkton Road, near the Delaware border with Maryland.

There were no customers in the store at the time of the robbery, Henry said.

The suspect is described as a black male, 20 to 30 years old, 5 feet, 8 inches tall, and 170 to 200 pounds. He was last seen wearing dark jeans, a black jacket and a baseball cap with the word "Sox" on it.

Newark police ask anyone with information to contact Det. Greg D'Elia at (302) 366-7110 ext 132 or Greg.Delia@cj.state.de.us.  Information can also be reported anonymously to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-TIP-3333, where a reward may be available.
