HUTCHINSON— Police in Hutchinson are investigating an attempted robbery of a local convenience store early Monday morning.

Police say an employee of the Pic-Quik at 901 East 11th Street reported that a woman entered the store just before 6:30 a.m. and demanded cash.

The clerk started to grab at the woman as she laid down a black handgun. The woman then ran out of the store with no money.

Police are reviewing video from the store to see if that helps in their investigation.

Police Lt. John Moore said officers did make a traffic stop of a vehicle with a woman driver that possibly matched the description of the suspect but they could not identify her as the suspect.
