Anne Arundel County police continue to search for a man who robbed a Red Crown Inn last week.

The incident happened July 26 shortly before 4 a.m. along the 3400 block of Laurel Fort Meade Road. Police responded to calls for service from the hotel for a reported robbery of a business. Upon arrival, officers spoke with a male clerk, who stated that he was in a booth inside the hotel when a male suspect approached and implied that he had a weapon.
