The Opp Police Department is actively seeking two suspects involved in an armed robbery at the Tom Thumb store early Wednesday morning. At approximately 3:16 a.m., two young black males allegedly threatened the store clerk with a handgun and fled the scene after obtaining cash. Law enforcement has since discovered that the weapon used in the crime was a toy gun, prompting a more extensive search for the suspects.
Officials describe one suspect as wearing all black clothing with white details on his shoes, while the other was noted to have a red jacket and purple Reebok backpack. The police encourage residents to check their security cameras for any suspicious activity during the time frame of 2:45 to 3:30 a.m. Anyone with information is urged to contact the Opp Police Department or submit tips anonymously through local crime stoppers.
