STUART — Authorities are looking for a man who stole more than $6,000 in cash and checks from a convenience store Friday.

Employees at the Stuckey Shell station in the 8000 block of Southwest Jack James Drive, Stuart, called deputies about 11 a.m. Friday after the theft. An employee said she had been counting cash and preparing to load an ATM machine when she left a rear office at the store for a few minutes. When she returned, a plastic bag with the cash was missing, according to the incident report.

Based on surveillance video provided by the store, detectives determined the suspect is a bald, muscular black male between 5 feet, 10 inches and 6 feet tall. The suspect was wearing a white T-shirt and blue jeans and may have left the store in a newer model green Cadillac sedan.

Anyone with information about this crime is asked to call Sheriff’s Detective Jake Sirmans at (772) 220-7060.
