Police are looking to the public for help after an armed robbery earlier this month.
A suspect robbed a store on Seymour Street at knifepoint on Nov. 10, where he made off with cash and cigarettes, according to a Kamloops RCMP news release.
Police said officers attended around 10 p.m., but weren't able to track down the suspect after he fled westbound on foot.
“Despite extensive police patrols, the suspect was not located,” spokesperson Cpl. Crystal Evelyn said in the release.
Police did not say exactly which store was robbed or which block of Seymour Street the store is on.
The male suspect was described as about 5'5" tall with a medium build. He was wearing a red face mask, black hoodie, black pants and gloves with fluorescent yellow on them, according to RCMP. He also had a "gruff" voice.
“Since the initial response, officers have obtained surveillance footage and are distributing an image of the suspect in hopes of furthering the investigation," Evelyn said.
