PLAINS TOWNSHIP — Police in Luzerne County cuffed a man who they say was involved in an armed robbery.

Officers say Marshall Dyer from Edwardsville was one of two men who held up Plains Meat Market in Plains Township Tuesday afternoon.

Authorities said the other crook used a box cutter to threaten the owner and demand money. The two men then ran off without getting any cash after the owner yelled for another employee.

Police caught up with Dyer on Maffett Street, but the man with the box cutter is on the run.

According to officials, the man who took off  was described to police as about 5 foot 9 inches, thin build with scruffy facial hair, and wearing a white hoodie and ball cap.

Nothing was taken from the store and the owner was not injured.
