CULLMAN – At approximately 2:08 p.m. this afternoon, April 23, officers from the Cullman Police Department responded to an armed robbery call at the Holiday Inn Express & Suites located at 2052 Hayes Drive in Cullman. That's right off Interstate 65 at Exit 310.
According to police, two armed men, described as African-American wearing "hoodies zipped all the way to the top and pulled down over their faces," entered the Holiday Inn, one presenting a firearm, and demanded cash.
Employees complied with the robbers' demands, and the suspects left the hotel on foot, headed north toward Musgrove Apartments.
According to a source within the CPD, officers brought in specially-trained dogs that tracked the robbers' scents from Musgrove, through a tunnel under the Interstate, where the scent trail disappeared.
The suspects have not been located and got away with an undisclosed amount of cash. There were no injuries reported.
Anyone who has any information regarding this crime is advised to please call the Cullman Police Department at 256-775-7145.
