Florence police are looking for a man who they say robbed a man, knocked eight of his teeth out, then tried to shoot him.

Troy Hunter is charged with armed robbery and attempted murder.

According to police, last week Hunter approached a man on Dixie Street and hit him in the mouth with a gun. They say he then robbed him and tried to shoot him twice, but missed.

Police say Hunter is considered armed and dangerous.
