Lake County Leader | Hagadone News Network | UPDATED 8 years, 2 months AGO
A juvenile has been arrested in connection with an armed robbery of the Sitting Duck Bar in Woods Bay last month, according to a press release from Lake County Sheriff Don Bell.
The release states that a man carrying a handgun entered the bar at about 12:30 a.m. on Jan. 19 and demanded money. The suspect was clothed from “head to toe” and pointed the gun at patrons and staff before fleeing the scene on foot, the release states.
Based on evidence collected from the area, law enforcement officers were able to identify a suspect and make an arrest. Additional investigation is ongoing, however, and individuals with information are encouraged to contact Detective Erwin Lobdell at 406-249-3015.
