Police looking for suspects in Miner hotel robbery

MINER, Mo. -- Police are searching for three suspects involved in an armed robbery early Thursday at a hotel in Miner.

According to Miner police chief Chris Griggs, about 2 a.m., three men entered the Comfort Inn on Matthews Lane in Miner and approached the hotel clerk.

"They displayed a weapon, tied up the clerk and took an undetermined amount of cash," Griggs said.

The suspects then fled in a dark-colored sport utility vehicle, Griggs said.

"We don't have a direction of their travel," Griggs said.

The female hotel clerk was not injured, and Thursday morning, police were reviewing hotel surveillance footage.

"We are currently investigating some leads; however, we do not have anyone in custody," Griggs said. "We will aggressively pursue all information that is obtained and make every effort to make an arrest."

Anyone with information about the incident is asked to contact the Miner Police Department 573-471-8568.
