No minors are allowed inside the business.Just after Shelby's opened at 10 a.m., a man went inside and robbed the person who was working, police said.He somehow locked the worker inside a closet in the deli, and the worker wasn't able to get out and call 911 for about an hour, police said.
The robber implied he had a weapon, but the deli worker never actually saw one, police said.Police didn't release a suspect description, but the robber is still on the run.Shelby's closed early Tuesday because of the robbery. The worker wasn't hurt.
