STONEHAM, MASS. (WHDH) - Stoneham police are turning to the public for help identifying the man they say robbed a gas station convenience store with a hypodermic needle earlier this week.
Officers responding to a reported robbery inside the convenience store at the Mobil station on Montvale Avenue around 11:15 p.m. on Aug. 25 spoke with a clerk who said a man came in the store and asked to use the phone, then pulled out a needle and demanded money.
The suspect fled the scene with an unknown amount of cash.
The suspect is described as a white man in his 20s or 30s who was wearing a green or gray baseball cap with an orange symbol on the front and a black T-shirt with a diamond design on the front made up of dollar bills.
A surveillance camera recording shows that suspect has a unique tattoo on his left forearm just below the elbow.
Anyone with information is urged to contact Stoneham police at 781-438-1215.
