A lone suspect – armed with a black handgun – entered the store, demanding the Petro and A&W employees give him cash from the tills, police allege.
The suspect allegedly waved this handgun at the victims while making his demands, say police.
Once the victims emptied the cash registers, the suspect exited through the front doors and fled on foot toward Derry Rd.
The suspect is described as male, black, standing 6-foot-2 to 6-foot-3 with a thin build.
He was wearing all black: track pants, sweater with a hood, gloves, and a face mask.
