Police say the robbery occurred on Jan. 31 at about 11:15 p.m.
"An unknown suspect arrived at the store as the staff were locking the entrance at closing. The suspect brandished a knife and directed the staff to reopen the door. A quantity of cash was taken from the register as well as several small bottles of liquor," a news release says. "The staff were not injured."
When they got the call, police searched the surrounding area with the help of a service dog but were unable to find the suspect.
The suspect is described as a 6-foot 2-inch Caucasian male with a heavy build. He was wearing a black tuque, a brown Under Armour winter jacket, blue jeans, brown footwear, and had his nose and mouth covered by a neck warmer or similar garment.
Surveillance footage shows the suspect walked east and then north of the store toward a residential/industrial area. Vehicle traffic is noted to be in the area at that time," the release says.
