Woodstock Man Indicted in Chevron Armed Robbery

A Woodstock man has been indicted in the December 2011 armed robbery of the Chevron convenience store on Arnold Mill Road.

Andrae Decarlos Foster, 35, was indicted by a Cherokee County grand jury on Nov. 13 on one count of armed robbery, one count of false imprisonment and one count of possession of firearm during the commission of a crime charges in relation to the incident.

The Woodstock Police Department on Dec. 7, 2011, responded to an armed robbery call at 10:10 p.m. the gas station located at 238 Arnold Mill Road. 

Officers met with the store clerk, who said a man came into the store around 9:45 p.m., purchased five lottery tickets and lingered inside the store. 

At around 10 p.m. that night, the clerk said told the suspect he was preparing to close the store. Foster allegedly walked to the counter, pulled out a semi-automatic black handgun from his jacket and demanded the clerk to hand over money from the cash register. Foster then fled the store after the clerk complied with his request.

Foster was on the run for nearly two years, but was apprehended in August with the help of the Georgia State Patrol.
