DPD looking for information in Sonic armed robbery By PAYTON TOWNS III The Dublin Police Department is looking for in- formation about an armed robbery at Sonic Drive- In on Hillcrest Parkway on Oct. 15. According to a DPD police report, a man entered Sonic at 11:08 p.m. with a handgun, demanding money from a safe. "Give me all you got," the man told the employ- ees. After getting the money, the man told the em- ployees, "Don't look back." The man told the employees to get down on the floor and, "do not come any closer." The man left the store with an unknown amount of money. The man was wearing a black hoodie, brown camouflage pants, black gloves and black shoes. He appeared to be approximately 6-feet tall and weighed around 200 pounds. Det. Sgt. Stacy Sapp is the lead investigator in the case. Anyone with information is asked to call the police department at (478) 277-5023.

DPD wants children to be safe this Halloween By PAYTON TOWNS III The only scary thing Dublin Police Department of- ficers want to see are the costumes people are wear- ing this Saturday. Besides that, they don't want to see people with their children hanging out the back of truck or trail- er. Lt. Jim Champion of the Dublin Police Depart- ment said they will be out in the neighborhoods keep- ing an eye on how things are going. "We want the children to be safe," he said.
