Gainesville Police responded Wednesday afternoon to a report of a person robbed in the parking lot of a liquor store on Athens Street.

According to Sgt. Kevin Holbrook, there were no injuries reported in the incident, which occurred at A&A Package Store.

“We do not believe this was a random act,” Holbrook said. “A criminal investigation division is currently working the ongoing investigation.”

Holbrook said he could not provide further details as they were “pertinent to the ongoing investigation.”
