London police say a man has been arrested after a convenience store robbery in the city’s east end.
Officials say it happened at around 3:20 a.m. Monday, when a man went inside a convenience store at 487 Hamilton Road, picked up a few items and demanded the items from the cashier while armed with what was believed to be a gun.
The suspect fled the scene with the items and the victim called 911, police say.
Officers say the suspect was found a short distance away. He was arrested without incident.
