MACON, Ga. — Bibb deputies have arrested the man accused of robbing a Macon Zaxby's restaurant on January 4.

According to a news release from the Bibb County Sheriff's Office, 20-year-old Anthony Wright was arrested Monday after an investigation.

The man, who was determined to be Wright, also a Zaxby's employee, showed a gun and demanded the deposit bag from the employee.

Wright took the bag, which had an unknown amount of money, and ran away.

No one was hurt.

Wright was taken to the Bibb County jail where he is being held without bond.
