Police continued Tuesday to investigate a reported armed robbery that was reported at a local convenience store the night before.

Workers at the Quick-N-Save, 2861 N. Themis St., told authorities that a man in his 20s entered the store at about 11:10 p.m., said Sgt. Jason Selzer, spokesman for the Cape Girardeau Police Department. The man flourished what store clerks thought was either a semiautomatic handgun or a BB gun and demanded money. The clerks complied, Selzer said, handing over an undisclosed amount of cash from the register.
