Atlanta police say a man dressed as a woman stole $40 out of a Midtown business' cash register on Wednesday afternoon.

Atlanta police are searching for the man they believe stole money out of a cash register while dressed as a woman during a robbery last week.
Officers responded to The Lucky Exchange at 212 Ponce de Leon Ave. at 1:37 p.m. Wednesday and learned from the victim that the man entered the store and said he needed money, a police report states.
According to the report, the man then pushed the clerk away from the cash register, tried to take it, but opened the register drawer after he realized it was bolted down and took $40 from the till.
