Published on

Toronto police have released security camera video of a man they’re asking the public for help in identifying.

The man is wanted in connection to three armed robberies, police say.

In each robbery, a man with a black handgun demanded cash from the store’s attendant, police say.

The first alleged robbery took place on June 14 at 305 Port Union Rd., followed by another on Sept. 15 at 1723 Victoria Park Ave, police say. The latest robbery took place on Oct. 22 at 1309 Lawrence Ave. E.

Police say they’re looking for the same man in all three incidents.

The man is described as black, between 5-foot-5 and 5-foot-8, in his mid 20s.

Investigators are asking anyone with information to contact police at 416-808-7350 or Crime Stoppers at 416-222-8477.
