A man claiming he had a gun in his pocket held up a convenience store in Pierrefonds during the early hours of Sept. 10.

The suspect entered the store near the intersection of Pierrefonds Blvd. and St-Charles Blvd. just before 4 a.m. and headed straight for the checkout counter where he told the cashier he had a gun in his pocket and then ordered him, in French, to empty the cash register, said Montreal Police Constable Daniel Maheu from Station 3.

The suspect left with around $150.

The suspect is described as black, around 20 years old, 5 feet, 10 inches tall, weighing around 180 pounds. He had dreadlocks and was wearing a white sweatshirt with a hood.

Police are studying security footage from the store’s camera.
