RCMP are investigating an armed robbery at a business in Souris on Monday and are looking for residents in the area who may have video footage of the suspect.
Souris RCMP were sent to a report of an armed robbery at a business on First Street South at about 8:45 p.m.
Officers arrived at the scene within minutes, and an employee told police that an unknown man with a handgun demanded cash and cigarettes from behind the counter, RCMP said in a news release on Wednesday.
The employee, who was not physically injured, handed over the items and the man ran away, the release said.
Officers patrolled the area with help from RCMP dog services, but they did not find the suspect.
Mounties said the suspect was described as 5-6 and wearing a dark hoodie, a coat, a balaclava and ski goggles.
RCMP are appealing to residents between Crescent Manor and Highway 2, including Third Street and Second Street as well as First and Crescent Avenue, who may have video footage.
Anyone with information is asked to contact the Souris RCMP detachment at 204-483-2854.
