Authorities are after a man who robbed a Girard Estate establishment.

The matter occurred at 3:10 p.m. July 10 at Payless ShoeSource, 2240 Oregon Ave., with the offender approaching an employee from behind and ordering her to empty the safe, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. Believing he had a weapon, the worker complied and reported last seeing him heading westbound toward Oregon Avenue after the taking of an undisclosed amount of cash.

She described the at-large individual as white, 25 to 30 years old, and 5-foot-9 to 5-foot-10; having facial hair; and wearing a black baseball hat with white writing, a black hoodie with multicolor writing, and black basketball shorts, sneakers, and tube socks.
