Police in Westmoreland County are looking for a man they say used a bizarre disguise when he robbed a gas station.

Trooper Stephen Limani of the state police barracks in Greensburg said a man robbed the Buy 'n Fly in Herminie after wrapping himself in fabric to conceal his identity.

Limani said witnesses reported the man was wielding a hatchet and "almost had the appearance of a mummy."

The robber got away with undisclosed amount of cash. There were no injuries.

Investigators are viewing surveillance video of Monday's robbery.
