A white man robbed a Best Buy store on Saturday, walking out with an X-BOX, but not before brandishing a knife at the loss prevention officer, Orlando Police said.
According to OPD:
On Saturday, April 24th, at approximately 12:35 PM, a white male entered the Best Buy, selected an X-BOX 360 video console, put it into a red bag and attempted to leave the store with the X-BOX 360 w/o paying. A Best Buy employee/Loss Prevention Officer (LPO) locked the front doors. The suspect pulled out a knife, brandished it at the LPO/witness and demanded to be let out of the store. The LPO backed-up, in fear for his life, and the suspect forced the front door open by slamming into the doors several times with his right shoulder/body.
The suspect escaped on foot with the X-Box. The suspect was wearing a black ball cap with neon green marijuana leaves all over the cap. He also had a reddish goatee and mustache and very close cropped hair or bald under the cap. He was stocky and was 5’5″ to 5’9″ in height.
**The knife used was described as a folding knife with a partially serrated 3-4 inch blade**
