Man threatened clerk with knife and fled with a large sum of cash

A man threatened a clerk with a knife during a robbery at a Rema 1000 store in Horsens, Denmark, and escaped with a significant amount of cash.

Last night, a robbery occurred at a Rema 1000 store located on Sundvej in Horsens, Denmark, where a clerk was threatened with a knife approximately 20 centimeters long. The local police, represented by Watch Commander Mathias MΓΈller, confirmed to TV Syd that after the incident, the suspect fled in a northern direction from the store. The event has raised concerns about safety in the area, prompting police to ramp up patrols and encourage community vigilance.

The suspect managed to escape with a considerable amount of cash, which has intensified the urgency for law enforcement to locate him. Though police and search dogs were deployed, they failed to apprehend the man, who is described as a hefty build, aged between 20 to 30 years, and standing between 170-185 centimeters tall. The lack of immediate arrest has left the community unsettled, especially given the violent nature of the crime.

Authorities are actively seeking witnesses who may have seen the individual or the incident, which occurred between 9:00 PM and 9:30 PM on Friday evening. The robber was reported to be wearing a black jacket with a red logo, gray jogging pants, black shoes, and was masked with a black hat and neck gaiter, adding to the challenge of identifying him. The police are urging anyone with information to come forward to assist in the investigation and improve public safety in the area.
