A 21 year old Bismarck man is arrested for robbing a gas station early this morning.

It happened at the Red Carpet on south Washington in Bismarck around 1:50 a.m.

Police say the man walked into the station wearing a blue hooded sweatshirt, with the hood pulled over his head and tied tight and a blue bandana over his mouth.

The male clerk told officers he thought the man had a weapon because the man had his hand in his sweatshirt pocket.

The man demanded cash and cigarettes.

Officers found the man two hours later walking north on Washington near Front Avenue.

Officers say the man was wearing the same sweatshirt as described in the robbery.
