Police released this sketch of a suspect they say robbed a Residence Inn Friday at gunpoint.
Police are looking for a hunched-over, beer-bellied man with a deep voice.
Authorities received a 911 call at 6:39 p.m. from the 1001 Bridgeport Ave. hotel.
“A lone black male entered the lobby, displayed a firearm and demanded money from the clerk,” according to a statement from police.
The suspect ran away. Police did not say how much money he stole.
Police described the suspect as a heavy-set black man, mid-to-late 40s, with close-cut, curly black hair and a mustache.
“The suspect is reported to have a large guy and walked hunched over. The suspect also has a deep voice,” police said in a statement.
Anyone with information should call the Shelton Police Department at (203) 924‑1544.
All calls are kept confidential.
