Police identified the suspect as Stacie Clifton, 32, of Chattanooga, who they said violently assaulted the clerk while demanding the cash register key. The clerk was stabbed twice in the arm, punched, kicked and stomped by the suspect.
Clifton was able to get the key after the assault, taking cash and the clerk’s purse. She fled in a Toyota Scion. The clerk’s injuries were not life threatening.
