Gwinnett County police are looking for a man who decided to rob a Peachtree Corners gas station at gunpoint instead of paying for his 12-pack of Bud Light.
The unidentified man walked into the Texaco station on Medlock Bridge Road at 6:30 p.m. Sunday and picked up the case of beer before asking the cashier for two packs of cigarettes. He pulled out a gun while the clerk was grabbing the cigarettes, police said.

Police described the suspect as a 6-foot-tall man weighing about 200 lbs. He had a dark beard and a tattoo on his right forearm.
