Armed Robber pulls gun on three different people

"Winston-Salem Police Officers responded to the Wells Fargo Bank at 4626 Country Club Rd on a report of an armed robbery.  Upon arrival contact was made with victim #1, Ms. McLean, who stated that the listed suspect forced his way into her vehicle at Harris Teeter located at 150 Grant Hill Ln.  

He had what she believed to be a pistol covered with an orange bandanna.  The suspect instructed her to drive to Wells Fargo. He then forced her to proceed through the drive thru and attempt to withdraw money from her account.  Ms. McLean was unable to retrieve any money so she gave the suspect an undisclosed amount of cash she had on her, and her iPhone.  The suspect forced her to drop him off at the corner of Country Club Rd and Old Vineyard Rd., where he ran toward Garden Park Apartments.

The suspect then approached victim #2, Ms. Hite at her address (131-9 Garden Path)  as she was seated in her vehicle.  He attempted to open the back door of her vehicle and tapped on her window with a pistol.  Ms. Hite became afraid and drove away.

Lastly, the suspect then approached the victim #3, Ms. Katuwal, as she was seated in her vehicle outside of her residence (291-S Village Creek Ct).  He did not touch the vehicle, but he pointed a gun at her and told her "I will not hurt you".  Ms Katuwal stated that she locked her doors and the suspect ran toward the wood line.

A K9 track was conducted, which concluded at Stonehenge Apartments (3800 block of Old Vineyard Rd).  Officers circulated the area and canvassed the neighborhood but as of yet, have not located the suspect. Investigation continues.

The suspect is described as Asian or Hispanic Male, black hoodie, black mask, black pants

Anyone with further information on this crime is requested to contact the Winston-Salem Police Department at 773-7700, or Crime Stoppers at 727-2800."
