Police said they are in the process of looking for surveillance footage and potential witnesses near Ty’s Browtique and Beauty store on Barton Boulevard.

The 25-year-old victim, Tatyana Perry, owns the salon.

Dispatchers said Perry reported that the suspect was a white male with a gun and that she was pushed over.

A dispatcher said Perry was “hysterical” and it was hard getting information from her.

Police said investigators didn’t know why Perry was at the store at 3 a.m.

Dispatchers relayed she drove herself to the hospital.

At the chiropractor business next door, the office manager said they’re trying to help police find a lead.

“They asked for the video, if we had cameras, and we do so we gave it to them,” Nora Gordon of Fogarty Chiropractic Life Clinic said.

Police said the investigation is very active.
