MADISON, Wis. (WMTV) - The Madison Police Department is searching for a suspect in an alleged armed robbery at Kwik Trip Saturday night .
According to an incident report, officers were dispatched to the 3100 block Maple Grove Drive around 11:54 p.m.

No injuries are reported, but the MPD says the suspect left with an undermined amount of money and is still at large.
The suspect is described as a black male wearing a black mask, black hoodie, black pants, and black shoes.
MPD are also investigating another alleged armed robbery at a Walgreens near the 7800 block of Mineral Point Rd.
Around 12:11 a.m., officers responded to the alleged robbery in which a man entered the store and displayed a handgun while demanding money and threatening he would shoot. The suspect then left the scene with an undetermined amount of U.S. currency.
