PHOTOS: Milford Subway Robbed at Gunpoint

Police say a gun-wielding man wearing a knit ski mask robbed a Milford Subway Monday and fled with an undisclosed amount of cash from the register.

The incident happened at about 9:20 p.m. at the store located at 609 Bridgeport Ave. The suspect entered the store and displayed a handgun before getting behind the counter and making off with the cash, police said.

“Investigators believe the suspect may have left the scene in a newer-style grey Honda-type vehicle,” police spokesman Officer Jeff Nielsen said in a statement.

Police said the suspect is described as “white or Hispanic, heavyset, approximately 5’10” tall.

“He was wearing a black T-Shirt with an image of a skeleton and a heart on the lower left portion of the shirt, light-colored cargo shorts, black sneakers and a watch on his left wrist,” Nielsen said.

Anyone with information on the incident is asked to call police at 203.783.4722 or email tbassett@ci.milford.ct.us or submit a tip online at www.milfordpd.org by clicking “Crime Tips.”
