Armed robber hits Roseburg restaurant
By Megan Sweeney, KPIC NewsROSEBURG, Ore. -- Another armed robbery took place in west Roseburg Wednesday afternoon, and police are looking for the suspect. Shazaam's restaurant and bar on Harvard was robbed at gunpoint around 2:00 p.m. Wednesday.
A witness told police that a man with a gun came in and demanded money, then fled the scene on a bicycle. Police actually detained a man riding a bike down Harvard, but later determined he just happened to be riding by, and he was let go. Officers searched the area around Shazaam's, which is next to the McMahan's furniture store on. So far they have not been able to locate the suspect. This is the second time in the last month that a business with lottery machines in Roseburg has been robbed. Police say the suspect is a white male, no age was given, but seems to be young. He appeared to be short and slightly overweight. He was wearing a dark-colored hooded sweatshirt and black baggy pants.
