A Myrtle Beach man faces several charges for a January 13 robbery at a store off Highway 15, according to a Myrtle Beach police report.

Myrtle Beach police charged Jonathan Edward Manigault, 27, with Armed Robbery, Possession of a Weapon During a Violent Crime and two counts of Kidnapping.

On January 13, police said two people entered the store at 305 Highway 15, drew two handguns and demanded money from a store employee.

The suspects zip-tied the hands of two employees behind their backs and made them lie on the floor, according to the report. They proceeded to steal several items from the store and an unknown amount of cash, police said.

A man, who walked into the store a few minutes after the suspects left, found the employees on the floor and called police.

Manigault was arrested and charged Monday. Police are still looking for the second suspect.
