A man robbed a Country Style Donuts on Long Lake Rd in Sudbury on June 9 at approximately 10:15 pm.
The man entered the store brandishing a hypodermic needle as a weapon. He stated he had AIDS and demanded money from the clerk. The clerk refused to cooperate but the suspect managed to remove a small amount of cash from the cash register before he fled the store, a news release said.
The man is described as Caucasian, 6'0” with a slim build and blue eyes. He was wearing a black hooded sweatshirt and red and dark coloured pajama pants.
A black mid-sized car was seen leaving the area shortly after the robbery but a connection between this and the robbery is undetermined.
Anyone with information in relation to this incident is being asked to phone the Greater Sudbury Police Criminal Investigations Unit at 675-9171 ext 2300 or Crime Stoppers at 675-TIPS.
