HAMILTON – Police are seeking the public’s help in identifying the suspect in a Dec. 29 gas station robbery.

The holdup happened at the Runway gas station on Greenwood Avenue shortly after 4:30 p.m., Capt. James Stevens said. The attendant was inside the booth working when he was approached by a man who drew a black handgun.

The suspect demanded that the attendant give up all the cash he had. The attendant complied and gave up an unknown amount of cash. After taking the money, the suspect fled on foot toward Massachusetts Avenue and out of sight.

Police were called and Officers Steve Chell and Ken McGuire responded to the scene. A search of the area along with other units did not turn up the suspect, Stevens said.

Detective Len Gadsby is investigating. Today, police released image from a surveillance camera at the station that allegedly shows the suspect. He is described as a Hispanic male, early 20s, 5-foot-8, 150 pounds, wearing a red jacket, blue baseball cap, blue jeans and black sneakers.

Anyone with information on the case should call Gadsby at (609) 581-4032 or the police department’s anonymous tip line at (609) 581-4008.
