Bibb County Sheriff’s Investigators made an arrest on a personal robbery that occurred on October 27, 2017 at 1103 Rocky Creek Road, S&A Grocery. The incident occurred just before 9:30 p.m. It was reported that the 23 year old male victim was backing his vehicle in the parking lot of the business when he struck a gold Mercury Marquis.
