Surveillance images released of knife-wielding gas station robber

London police have released three surveillance photos of a suspect wanted in connection with a gas station robbery in the southeast-end.

A man, armed with a knife, walked into the Esso station at 60 Adelaide Street just south of Hamilton Road around 2:20 a.m. on August 27. The man went past the employee behind the counter and took lottery tickets and cash before running from the store.

Police were called and searched the area, but were unable to find the suspect.

The cashier was not physically hurt.

The suspect is described as Caucasian, approximately 35-years-old, 5’10”, with a thin build. He was wearing all black clothing.

On Friday, police released surveillance images of the suspect in hopes the public will be able to help identify him.

Anyone with information about this incident is asked to call police at 519-661-5670 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
