The Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office responded to a call of an armed robbery of a convenience store in the 1900 block of Sam Houston Jones Parkway in Lake Charles this morning around 12:40.  The investigation revealed a man went into the store with a firearm and demanded money from the clerk.   After obtaining an undisclosed amount of cash he fled the store on foot in an unknown direction.
