Police seek armed robbery suspect

Policing are investigating an armed robbery that happened north of Ladysmith.

It happened Saturday night just after 10:30 when a “large” man walked into a Pub and Liquor Store located in the 1600-block of Timberlands Road.

Mounties say the suspect came into the store, pulled out a handgun and demanded cash.

He also helped himself to about 60 packages of cigarettes before fleeing the store on foot.

Mounties say the entire incident took only about a minute but are hoping someone saw something that can help with the investigation.
