Police are searching for a man who robbed the Speedway at Versailles Road and Alexandria Drive early Wednesday.

The man, who was wearing a dark hoodie, dark jeans and white tennis shoes, entered the store about 3:30 a.m. and displayed a handgun, Lexington police Lt. Clay Combs said. He then demanded cash from a clerk.

After the clerk complied and gave him an undetermined amount of cash, the man fled around the back of the store, Combs said. Police believe the suspect’s vehicle may be a tan or gold SUV.

No arrests had been made as of late Wednesday morning.
