VERNON, B.C. — Vernon RCMP are asking for help from the public identifying a man suspected to have robbed a local eatery.

On August 13, the Peachwave Frozen Yogurt Store on 27th Street was robbed by a man holding his left hand in his pocket, leading the clerks to believe he had a weapon.

Surveillance photos show the man wearing a two-toned jacket with a bright yellow zipper and liner, grey sweat pants and white and black runners.

Police say the man is white and appears to be in his late 30s.
