QUESNEL, B.C. — Mounties in Quesnel are seeking your help following an armed robbery over the weekend.
RCMP say on Saturday (Jan.7) at around 3:40 p.m., they responded to a report of a robbery at a business in the 400-block of Front Street.
“A man disguised with a mask entered the store and produced what appeared to be a handgun, demanded money and threatened the cashier,” says Sgt. Clay Kronebusch. “The man was wearing a black hoodie with a Harley Davidson print on the front, light coloured jogging pants, black shoes and a grey ski mask. The man fled on foot with an undisclosed amount of cash.”
He says the man was observed going behind the Safeway on Reid Street and removing his mask and hoodie before continuing south. Witnesses describe the man as having grey hair. Police located the discarded hoodie and mask, along with an imitation firearm nearby.
