Shreveport Police are hunting for the man  who fired a shot at the clerk of a local gas station during a robbery Wednesday evening.

Just before 9:00 p.m. on February 8, 2017, Shreveport  officers responded to the A-1 Stop gas station located in the 3800 block of Linwood Avenue on an armed robbery call.  As officers arrived at the business, contact was made with an employee who advised that while inside the business, a male armed with a gun came to the counter and demanded money.  The clerk, after observing the suspect was armed, attempted to defend himself by arming himself with his own weapon.

The suspect, unfazed by the actions of the clerk, continued to rob the business of an undisclosed amount of money, not before firing a shot at the clerk, who did not return fire.  After making off with his haul, the suspect ran from the scene.  The clerk, while shaken, was not injured during the ordeal.
