Hollywood Police are searching for a man caught on camera viciously beating a store clerk with a pipe during a robbery last month.
The incident took place on October 14th at the Shamrock Gas Station at 5600 Washington Street. Video captured the suspect following the clerk, Mohammed Shahadat, to a secure office before striking him repeatedly with the pipe and his fists.
"I thought he was a customer so i just tried to come inside the register and he just hit me in the back and he don't say nothing," said Shahadat.
The clerk was able to get ahold of the pipe, after which the suspect fled. Shahadat believes his faith gave him strength and saved him during the ordeal.
"I don't know God gave me power to do that. So, I was like everything good, you know," said Shahadat.
The crook could be seen on camera wearing an Atlanta Braves hat with a full beard and sunglasses. Anyone with information is asked to call the Hollywood Police Department at 954-967-4411.
