A masked man is being sought out by Smithers police after a robbery early this morning, and Mounties are asking the public for help.
Around 3:30AM, RCMP responded to a business along Highway 16 where a masked robber pulled out a weapon, demanded cash from an employee, and then fled on foot.
The employee was unharmed, but it’s unclear how much money was stolen.
As a result, police have received very few descriptions on the suspect.
He is believed to be:
- In his 20s
- Between 5’8” and 5’11”
Anyone with more information is asked to call the Smithers RCMP at (250) 847-3233, the North District RCMP at (250) 561-3166, or Crime-Stoppers at 1 (800) 222-8477.
