Authorities continue to look for the suspect in the robbery and shooting that took place at Mining City Taxi on Thursday evening.

A 23-year-old victim tried to flee the taxi business when an armed robber demanded the victim lead him to money, according to Butte-Silver Bow Law Enforcement. The victim was shot four times in the leg and lower back area. The victim was released from the hospital on Saturday.

Authorities have recovered the hard hat the suspect was wearing in surveillance video of the shooting. The hard hat was discovered at an undisclosed area. Sheriff Ed Lester said he hopes someone will recognize the hard hat and it will generate more leads.
