A gunman walked into a northwest Atlanta gas station, pointed a firearm at the clerk and walked out with roughly $6,000 in cash, according to police, who are now asking for the public’s help to track him down.
Atlanta officers say the hold-up happened Wednesday in the 1900 block of Moores Mill Road NW and that the entire encounter was caught on surveillance video that detectives have now released.

In one earlier case, a suspect stole about $3,500 from a Shell station on Donald Lee Hollowell Parkway in March 2025, WSB-TV reported.
