The Ottawa Police Service is asking for the public’s help in identifying a suspect in a robbery on Iris Street in April.
Police said Monday they’re looking for a man who boarded the O-Train at Pimisi Station at roughly 12:30 a.m. on April 9. He then transferred to a route 75 bus and got off at Iris Street around 1 a.m.
At that point, the suspect approached a man on the street and pulled out a knife, demanding the victim’s belongings, according to police.
The victim did not sustain injuries and the suspect then fled on foot.
Police are looking for a man in his early 20s, around 5’9” with a medium build. He was dressed in all black, with a puffy hooded coat, face mask and durag.
