PUEBLO, COLO. -- Pueblo Police officers are asking for the public's help find a man who robbed a flower shop Sunday.
According to witnesses, a man walked into the Flowerama in the 1200 block of Lake Avenue, asked the cashier for change for a $20, then pulled out a gun when the cashier opened the register.
The cashier said the man pointed the gun and said something like "give me all the money or I'll put a hole in your face."
The man grabbed the money and left in an older model black Kia Optima with a temporary license plate that was parked in an alley behind the store. The car then drove off northbound on Lake.
Witnesses said the suspect is a Hispanic man in his 30s or 40s. He's about 5'8" and weighs about 200 pounds with a bald head, a thick, dark moustache and tattoos on his right arm. He wore a white t-shirt, blue jeans, light-colored shoes and big sunglasses.
Officers are asking anyone with information to call Pueblo Crime Stoppers at (719) 542-7867.
