New Bedford Police are investigating an attempted unarmed robbery Sunday morning.

Detective Captain Steven Vicente says that at around 9:40 a.m. a man entered the Honey Dew Donuts at 1405 Cove Rd. and ordered a coffee.

The employee opened the register at which time the man grabbed her arm and attempted to reach into the register and take some cash.

She was able to pull away and the man fled without taking any money.

The suspect is described as a six foot tall light skinned male wearing a grey short sleaved button up shirt, black framed glasses, and tattoos on his fingers.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Det. William Sauve at 508-991-6300 ext. 130 or leave an anonymous tip at 508-961-4584.
