Man robs Chuck E. Cheese

Wilmington police are looking for a man who robbed the Chuck E. Cheese’s on Oleander Drive.

It happened around 12:00 Thursday afternoon. Police say the robber approached the counter when no customers were around, told the clerk he had a gun, and demanded money.

He didn’t show a gun, but the employee gave him the money and a witness says he left on a bike.

Families who were at Chuck E. Cheese when it happened say they were concerned for their safety.

“What if one of our children had been taken, this fellow would have gotten desperate. You just don’t know, you just don’t know, if he had a weapon, and we were in there having a good time with our children,” said Paula Knox.

The suspect is a black male wearing dark shorts, a blue short-sleeved shirt, and a baseball camp, that possibly has a “Hello Kitty” logo on it.

If you have information, call Wilmington police at 343-3600.
