Aurora Suspect At Large After Attempted Robbery, Bomb Scare
AURORA, Colo. (CBS4) - Police in Aurora are looking for the man who turned a robbery attempt into a bomb scare on Tuesday.
The man fired a gun inside a cash checking business and left behind what police call a possible explosive device.
It happened in the afternoon at the Ace Cash Express store on East Colfax.
Police say the man came in and demanded money, claiming he had a bomb. No one was hurt after he fired several shots.
A bomb squad responded to the scene after reports of the device came in.
The man was described as being a black man in his early 20s. He is about 6 feet tall with a thin build and weighing about 165 pounds. He was wearing a gray shirt, baggy jeans, sunglasses and a scarf.
On Tuesday the store hadn't been cleaned up yet. There was still debris apparently from the device on the floor.
An Aurora police spokeswoman said the suspect should be considered armed and dangerous.
