Edmonton police are looking for a suspect who allegedly robbed a Jasper Place convenience store of $6,000 worth of watches, vapes, cigarettes and cash on the night of Oct. 8.

The Edmonton Police Service alleges the suspect pulled a handgun on the clerk of the store – at 156 Street and 98 Avenue – then smashed the cash register and filled a blue plastic bag with the money and items. He then fled on foot.

Authorities say no store employees or customers were injured.

The suspect is described as an adult man with a thin build. He wore a black puffy jacket, dark jeans with white inner seams, grey running shoes and black gloves with a lighter colour on the palm, as well as a neon green “alien” mask.
