Investigators believe Dukes hid in a bathroom with a gun, waiting to get the manager alone to rob the business.
But when he came out, only Edwards was there.
Edwards worked as a night custodian at the diner.
Police say Dukes shot Edwards twice, once in the head and once in the chest.

He is being held on $2 million bond.
