Kingston police searching for armed robbery suspect – Kingston | globalnews.ca

Police are asking for help locating a suspect following a knife-point robbery at a Kingston grocery store last week.

Investigators say the lone male suspect paid for two canned drinks, but then pulled out a large knife and demanded cash from a cashier working at the store near the corner of Montreal Street and Railway Street on Friday.

Police say when the cashier refused to hand over cash, the suspect took a box of chocolate bars and ran out the door.

The suspect was wearing a black hoodie over a heavy dark blue jacket and baseball cap, and police say the man’s hat had a red beak stitched with a white “C” inside a black circle.

Sources say the suspect was clean-cut and had “dirt-stained hands.”

He was wearing a beige, red and white glove on his left hand and a beige glove with a dark palm on his right hand.
