The Saint John Police Force is looking for a suspect involved in a robbery at a convenience store on the east side nearly one year ago.

Police say a man allegedly armed with a weapon entered a Bonita Avenue store around 7:20 p.m. on Dec. 28, 2024.

He took an undisclosed amount of money and fled in a vehicle described as an older model silver or gold car with tinted windows and a loud exhaust.

“The store employee was injured during the robbery and was transported to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries and later released,” a news release reads.

Police describe the suspect as Caucasian with a slender build who is believed to be under the age of 35. He is roughly five-foot-six or five-foot-seven.

He was wearing black clothing, black gloves and a black and white bandana. A visible tattoo was seen on his left forearm.

Anyone with information on the suspect is asked to call police at 506-648-3333, or anonymously contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
