An armed man robbed a ladies underwear department at a South Jersey Mall making off with a hunk of cash.
The holiday season heist went down right around closing Monday night in the lingerie department of Macy’s at the Deptford Mall. A masked man, wearing gloves pulled a gun on a female employee and demanded she empty the register, said Deptford Township Police.
The employee handed over nearly $1,200 in cash, said police.
After grabbing the dough, the man ran out of the store and got into a white vehicle before fleeing the scene. Investigators released a still of that vehicle leaving the scene Wednesday but didn’t show any surveillance images from within the store.
The employee wasn’t hurt.
A mall spokesman said the incident was rare.
“The safety of our guests and retailers is a top priority and we strive to maintain a safe, enjoyable shopping environment at Deptford Mall,” said senior property manager Jim Mackey, CSM. “We have a thorough security program in place and we work very closely with our local law enforcement agencies.”
Part of that security includes patrons being able to ask security guards to take them to and from their cars.
Anyone with information about the heist is asked to contact Deptford Township Police at (856) 845-2220.
