The following was compiled from Renton Police Department case reports:
Bigfoot Java on Bronson Way North was robbed of about $50 in cash in the early morning hours of March 20 by a man armed with a handgun.
The suspect, a black male 30 to 40 years old with a bald head and about 5-foot-8, walked up to the shop’s outdoor window with a napkin over his mouth. An employee told him the shop does not open the door for customers at that time of night.
He turned away, mumbling, then returned quickly.
The employee noticed a handgun hanging from the suspect’s back pocket. He demanded that the employee open the window and give him the money from the register. The employee offered coins, but the suspect didn’t want them.
He ordered the employee to the floor and he fled.
