UPDATE: Suspect questioned in Regent St. robbery

Madison Police Department spokesman Joel DeSpain said a suspect is being questioned in connection with the armed robbery earlier today of the Italian grocery store Fraboni’s, 822 Regent St.

The man is not yet under arrest, DeSpain said, but added that he is not aware that police are searching for anyone else.

DeSpain said the man was found by police in the University of Wisconsin administration building at 21 N. Park St. after it had been cleared because a UW employee in the building saw someone suspicious. UW employees and students in two nearby dormitories were alerted about the robbery at 12:15.
