“A man disguised with a mask entered the store and produced what appeared to be a handgun, demanded money and threatened the cashier. 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.”

Kronebusch says the man was then observed going behind the Safeway on Reid Street and removing his mask and hoodie before continuing south.
