Police were looking for a man they say assaulted a clerk at a Brick Township 7-Eleven convenience store during a robbery early Wednesday morning.
According to Sgt. Jim Kelly, officers were called to the 7-Eleven store at 101 Chambers Bridge Road at about 1:30 a.m. Wednesday morning. The responding officers were told that the suspect struck the victim on the head with a solid object and “removed a quantity of cash from the cash register along with a box of cigarettes.”
The victim suffered an abrasion on his head. The suspect then fled the store north on Chambers Bridge Road, Kelly said.
