Police found the cashier when they arrived on the scene. She was taken to the hospital, where she was last reported in critical condition. Police immediately watched the surveillance tapes. The tapes showed the entire incident. Police were on their way to Motley’s house shortly afterward.
Motley ran off before the cops could catch him, but they still carried out the search warrant on the home. They found the handgun, yellow Dollar General bag, and the candy inside of Motley’s home. Motley was arrested on Thursday and charged with “especially” aggravated robbery and attempted first degree murder.
