Police say a man accused of robbing a convenience store last night was caught minutes later relieving himself behind the business.

A man came into the Kangaroo Mart on Wilroy Road about 11:30 p.m., threatened the clerk, threw her on the ground and robbed the place, according to a city news release. The clerk called the cops, who were already nearby, and pointed them toward the back of the building -- the direction she saw him flee.

Police immediately arrested the man and took him to headquarters. He was carrying the stolen cash, police said.

Sean P. Almond, 43, of Windsor, is charged with one count of armed robbery. Charges of assault and urinating in public are also pending, police said. Almond is being held at Western Tidewater Regional Jail without bond.
