Payless on Bowen Rd robbed

23-02-2011
The Payless gas bar located at 1702 Bowen Rd was robbed at gun point yesterday afternoon.

The incident began shortly after 1 PM yesterday February 22 when a lone male walked into the gas bar with a silver pistol and demanded money from the clerk. He quickly got impatient and decided to grab the money himself from the till. He then ran out the front door and was last seen going towards Townsite Rd. Officers were on scene within minutes along with Police Dog services. A track was picked up but lost in the general area where he was last seen.

The male is described as being white, approximately 6 ft with a stocky build. He was wearing a pink toque, black bandana and gloves and a white and black ski jacket.
