Help Us Solve this Crime in Peachtree City

Looking for a suspect. Black, 6-foot-1 male with short hair and a medium build.

Like the car rolling into Lake Kedron, there has been another major event in Peachtree City, except this time, we need your help! Early Sunday, two restaurant owners left their business, the China Garden in Union City. They came home to their house on Abrell Woods Court in Peachtree City and got out of their vehicle in their driveway. One was carrying a bag similar looking to a bank deposit bag.

How Did the Crime Happen?

Suddenly, a man wearing all black struck them in the head with a handgun. He threatened them and demanded their money and the bag. The victims handed over the cash and gave it to the robber. Once he got what he wanted, he fled the scene in a large dark sedan. The robber had a partner that was driving the getaway car.
