EL PASO, Texas (KTSM) A 29-year-old man was arrested after robbing a Subway restaurant in a pink dress and high heels on Sunday, June 22, in far East El Paso, according to the El Paso County Sheriff’s Office.

Manuel Reyes, 29, of El Paso, was arrested on two counts of aggravated robbery and one count of robbery. He was booked into the El Paso County Detention Facility with a total bond of $130,000, according to the Sheriff’s Office.

According to the Sheriff’s Office, shortly before 7:30 p.m. on Sunday, deputies were dispatched to an armed robbery at a Subway restaurant located along the 12500 block of Pellicano Drive.

When deputies arrived, they spoke with two employees who said that a white male entered the restaurant wearing a pink dress, high heels, a dark wig and sunglasses, the Sheriff’s Office said.

The suspect concealed one arm under a brown paper bag and handed the employees a note that read “Money in the bag” while pointing the bag in a “threatening manner”, suggesting he was armed, the Sheriff’s Office said.

The Sheriff’s Office said the suspect fled the scene with roughly $50-60 in cash and was last seen leaving in a white pickup truck. The truck was later connected to two additional robberies in the area.

Through an investigation with the Sheriff’s Office Major Crimes Unit and the El Paso Police Department, Reyes was identified as the suspect and was arrested, the Sheriff’s Office said.

The Sheriff’s Office said the case remains under active investigation.
