CLAYMONT, DE — Delaware State Police arrested a 42-year-old man in connection with a robbery that occurred Tuesday evening at a discount store.
On February 2, at approximately 7:30 p.m., troopers responded to the Dollar General, located at 2605 Philadelphia Pike, for a reported robbery.
Responding troopers were provided a description of the suspect.
A short time later, troopers located a man matching the suspect’s description walking on a nearby street and detained him without incident.
The man was identified as Ian Eisiminger, of Claymont.
The Delaware State Police Criminal Investigations Unit responded and assumed the investigation.
The preliminary investigation revealed Eisiminger entered the store and walked around for several minutes before approaching a store clerk and handing over a note demanding money from the cash register.
Store employees complied and Eisiminger ran away with an undisclosed amount of cash.
Troopers also located clothing items Eisiminger wore during the robbery near a bus stop close to the scene.
Troopers took Eisiminger to Troop 1 and charged him with two counts of Robbery Second Degree (Felony).
He was arraigned by Justice of the Peace Court 11 and committed to the Howard R. Young Correctional Institution on a $12,000 cash bond.
