MPD Investigates Armed Robbery on Regent Street

• Incident date: May 2, 2014, 10:00 pm
• Incident type: Armed Robbery
• Location/address: Wingstop - 1234 Regent Street, Madison

The City of Madison Police Department is investigating an armed robbery that occurred Friday night at Wingstop, 1234 Regent Street – approximately one block south of the UW-Madison campus.

The following information is from the City of Madison Police Department:

On Friday, May 2 at approximately 10:15 p.m., a suspect entered the Wingstop restaurant on Regent Street and brandished a silver handgun.  The suspect ordered all the employees to the ground and demanded cash from the register.  The employees complied with the demand and the suspect then fled from the establishment.

The suspect description matches the suspect involved in an armed robbery last weekend at Pizza Extreme: he’s described as an African American male, light skinned, early 20’s, last seen wearing a dark coat with a hood, dark jeans, and red and black tennis shoes.

The suspect was observed getting into a dark four-door sedan, possibly a Chevy Malibu — the vehicle was last seen traveling westbound on Regent Street.  Another subject was driving.

If you have any information about this crime, please call the City of Madison Police Department, or call 911.
