Officer Charley Davidson said the culprit walked into Hollywood Alterations, 2610 S. Seneca, with a black handgun at about 6 p.m. Tuesday and demanded money from those inside. A 54-year-old woman turned over some cash. The robber ran from the store afterward.

Another woman, 40, also was in the store when the robbery happened. No one was hurt, Davidson said.
