WORCESTER -- A man armed with a gun was apparently more interested in the cash than the sandwich he just ordered inside a Subway sandwich shop Wednesday night on Stafford Street.
Police are now looking for the robber, who they said went into the store at 120 Stafford St. around 9:30 p.m. and ordered something to eat.
"The suspect then went into the bathroom and came out brandishing a semi-automatic handgun," police said. "He demanded money from the clerk and jumped over the counter. The suspect proceeded to take the cash out of the register and place it in his pockets."
No one inside the sub shop was injured. The suspect ran off toward Webster Square.
Police described the suspect as a white male, possibly in his mid-20s, standing about 5 feet 8 inches tall with a large build. The man wore a blue hooded-sweatshirt, baseball hat, a bandana over his face, jeans and black sneakers.

Too many people are committing crimes because of many different reasons. Though they could be seeking help. There are many organizations out there designed to help people in need. If you are homeless, or on the verge of becoming homeless, if you are jobless, if your family is dysfunctional and many more. There is no reason these people can't be helped, but many may not know that and a lot of them aren't willing to seek out the help. so they resort to committing criminal acts. I think we should promote help to people who need it more often and help people in need more. If you find the man who committed this crime the numbers to reach authority are in the story above.
