Myrtle Beach police are searching for a man who robbed the Kangaroo Express gas station on South Kings Highway early Thursday morning.

The victim told police around 1 a.m.m a man came into the store with a black shirt pulled partially over his face and pointed a gun at her.

The suspect told the clerk to "Give me your money," several times, and pointed his gun at another person in the store, according to the report.

The clerk handed over $130 from the cash register to the suspect who then left, the victim said.

The victim told police the suspect was wearing a black turtleneck with a gray long-sleeved shirt on top and then a black T-shirt on top of that, along with a black toboggan and black cargo pants.

The cargo pants had what appeared to be zippers on both knees, possibly with some red stitching, the report says.

The suspect was also wearing latex gloves.

Police recovered surveillance video of the robbery.

If you know anything about it, you're asked to call Myrtle Beach police (843) 918-1382.
