Man accused of threatening Target employee with knife during robbery

SAN ANTONIO – A man has been arrested following a robbery at a Target store.

Andrew Gutierrez, 33, has been charged with aggravated robbery in the incident that happened on Sept. 17.

An arrest warrant affidavit states that Gutierrez entered the store and concealed various items without paying for them.

As he left, a female employee tried to stop him and told him to return the merchandise.

Gutierrez then showed a knife and then said “sorry,” the affidavit states. The employee, fearing for her life, let him leave.
