Armed Robbery At Mims Discount Beverage Store

MIMS, Florida -- The Brevard County Sheriff’s Office responded to a reported armed robbery with a firearm at the Mims Discount Beverage Store located at 4109 State Road 46 in Mims, Florida.

Once on scene, deputies learned that at approximately 7:50 p.m. Sunday night, a black male entered the store.  After a brief time in the bathroom, the black male approached the clerk from behind, placing what the clerk believed was a firearm into the small of the clerk's back, and demanded the money from the cash register.  The clerk complied with the suspect's demands, providing the suspect with an undetermined amount of money.  The suspect then departed the store without incident.
