Man robs Papa Murphy's at knifepoint, Wauwatosa police say
Aug. 19, 2013
A man wearing a nylon mask robbed Papa Murphy's, 7630 W. Bluemound Road, at knifepoint at 12:30 p.m. Aug. 10.
According to the Wauwatosa police report:
The man walked straight behind the counter with a large plastic bag and said something to the employees.
His speech was muffled by the nylon mask over his face so employees asked him what he wanted.
He pulled a butcher knife from his waistband, grabbed an employee by the arm, and told her to open the register.
He put the money in the plastic bag and ran off, getting into a tan- or gold-colored Pontiac four-door car, and drove off.
