The suspect is described as being about six feet tall with a slim build and glasses. (RCMP)Codiac Regional RCMP have released surveillance video pictures of a suspect in connection with an armed robbery of a gas station in Moncton last month.
A man, who had what appeared to be a handgun tucked into his waistband, demanded cash from the male clerk at the Canadian Tire Gas Bar at 650 Mountain Rd. on Jan. 18, at about 11 p.m.
He fled with an undisclosed amount of cash and other items.
No customers were in the store at the time and no one was injured.
Police are asking for the public's help in identifying the suspect, said Const. Damien Thériault.
He is described as being English-speaking, in his early 20s, about six feet tall, with a slim build, and unshaven.
He was wearing glasses, a scarf over his face, a black hoodie with a Michael Jordan Flight logo on the front, Levi's red tab black jeans and black skateboard-style sneakers.
Anyone with information is asked to contact the RCMP at 506-857-2400 or Crime Stoppers at 1-900-222-TIPS (8477).
