Lexington Police are looking for a man who held up a motel employee.
Police say the robbery happened at the Red Roof Inn on Wilhite Drive.
The robbery happened a few months ago, but police are reaching out to the public now in hopes someone has information that can help with their investigation.
The man who robbed the motel was about 6’1’’ and 300 pounds. Police say he walked into the motel lobby around 4:15 p.m. and ordered the woman working the front desk to give him all of the money in the drawer. The woman told police he had a knife.

Back in February, detectives had some leads, but now they need help identifying him.
“We’ve had a couple of different leads on this case, but it’s really not panned out unfortunately. So it’s been a few months, and investigators have done everything we can do on our end, and right now we’re reaching out to the public because we just need that added piece of information, just that one little boost in the investigation to ahead and make a charge,” said Detective Mark Thomas.
The Red Roof Inn employee told police that the man drove off in a tan, four-door car with a sunroof.
