The search is on for a suspect who robbed a man in his seventies last month.
Police say the older victim was at a gas station on Montreal Road at around 5 a.m. on March 23 when he was approached by the suspect, who offered to pump his gas.
In thanks, the victim gave the suspect a short ride. The suspect then stole the man’s cell phone, demanded money in exchange, and tackled the man when he parked the car and ran to get help.
The suspect, who may be named Eric, is described as white, about 5’10 with a slim build. Anyone with information is asked to call the Robbery Unit at 613-236-1222 ext. 5116, Crime Stoppers at 613-233-8477 (TIPS) or toll free at 1-800-222-8477.
