An armed robber made off with an undisclosed amount of cash after holding up an Avondale in St. Catharines.
Around 10 yesterday morning a man entered the store on Carlton Street brandishing a weapon and demanding cash.
Money in hand, he fled the scene in a Red SUV last seen travelling Westbound on Carlton Street toward Bunting Road.
The clerk was not hurt.
The man is described as between 20 - 25 years old, around 5'8" with a medium build and brown eyes. At the time he was wearing a grey hoodie with a white shirt, black shorts with red vertical stripes, and white running shoes.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Detective Sergeant Shaun Parrent at 905-688-4111 Ext. 4455.
