Clayton County police need help identifying a man and a woman they say robbed a Kroger grocery store in Stockbridge at gunpoint last month.

The armed robbery occurred at around 9:20 a.m. Feb. 15 inside the store in the Stockbridge Village shopping center on Ga. 138. Police said a meat manager noticed the man and confronted him at the exit. The suspect then took out a black handgun, pointed it at the manager and left with the stolen items, authorities said.

Police said the suspects “took meat only” from the store. The department described the incident as an “armed robbery of meat.”

Donald Trump's administration deployed the military to Washington, D.C., in the name of fighting crime, and in an Aug. 11 news conference he mentioned the possibility of military being sent to other large American cities, all of which are led by Black, Democratic mayors. And while Atlanta wasn't included in Trump's list, the city fits that profile under Mayor Andre Dickens. (Photo Illustration: Philip Robibero / AJC | Source: Getty)
