A man armed with pepper spray robbed a Dollar General store in Kennedy on Thursday morning, according to Allegheny County police.

The robbery happened just before 9 a.m. at the store on Pine Hollow Road, police said. A man walked into the store and approached two female employees separately, each time demanding money.

Investigators said the man kept his hands in his pockets during a majority of the robbery and made off with an unspecified amount of cash from behind the counter.

On his way out of the store, he turned around and sprayed pepper spray into the store, police said.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Allegheny County Police tip line at 1-833-ALL-TIPS (1-833-255-8477).
