Peterborough police are searching for two suspects following a robbery at a convenience store late Friday night (July 9).
At around 10:30 p.m. on Friday, officers were called to a convenience store in the George Street North and Parkhill Road area.
Police report the store clerk had been threatened by one man who was brandishing a knife while a second man watched the door. The pair made off with some cash and the clerk was not injured.
The canine unit was called to search the area but did not locate the suspects.

The second suspect is described as a white male in his mid 20s, with a thin build. He was wearing a black hoodie with a large horizontal white stripe and a white hood, beige pants, and black shoes with white edging. His face was covered with a black mask and he was wearing a toque underneath his hood.
