The Montgomery County Sheriff is asking for the public’s help in identifying an armed man who robbed two businesses recently.
He’s accused of robbing the Eastland Grocery Store around 9:30 Saturday night. The sheriff says that the man snuck in as the store was closing or the evening and the store clerk was cleaning up.
Sheriff Fred Shortridge says that he had a gun. The clerk was not hurt but the man got away with cash.

Two days later, Shortridge says the same man hit the Family Dollar in town on Maysville Road.
“The only difference in between those is that in the Family Dollar, my understanding there was several people inside the business, which didn’t bother him at all. So, he just walks in and commits the robbery with the people inside the store,” said Shortridge.
In both robberies, Shortridge says that he was very nonchalant; giving the impression that he’d committed a crime before.
If you recognize the man, please call the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office.
