Police are looking for a suspect who pulled a handgun on a pregnant cashier and held it to her head Tuesday at a Dollar General store in Stone Mountain.

Stone Mountain police estimated the woman was between five and six months pregnant.

The man entered the store on Main Street and walked around briefly before holding the gun to the cashier’s head and then forcing her to the manager’s office, where the manager was counting a drawer of cash.

The suspect demanded money and the manager gave him the drawer she was counting and another drawer, according to police.

Authorities said the suspect left with an undisclosed amount of cash.

No injuries were reported. The investigation continues.
