A Sunoco gas station in Penn Hills was robbed late Monday morning.

Police Chief Howard Burton said no one was injured in the incident around 11:45 a.m. at the convenience store along the 200 block of Hulton Road.

The chief said the robber brandished a silver handgun and demanded money from the clerk behind the counter.

He took money from the register as well as the lottery machine before running out.

Burton described the suspect as a black man, about 5 feet 6 inches tall. He was wearing a dark hoodie, burgundy pants, clear plastic gloves and a facemask.

Burton said the suspect fled down Hulton Road to Poketa Road, and then to Arnold Drive before disappearing into the woods.

Anyone with information about the robbery can contact Penn Hills police at 412-342-1188.
