THUNDER BAY – City police are looking for a hammer-wielding suspect wanted in conjunction with a robbery of a south-side convenience store.
In a release issued on Thursday, Thunder Bay police say a male suspect entered the Mac’s Convenience Store on the corner of Mountdale Avenue and Arthur Street at about 1:15 a.m. this past Saturday, his face covered with a bandana.

Police searched the area, but none of the people were located.
The suspect who entered the store is described as standing about 5-foot-7 with a thin build. He was wearing a black long-sleeved shirt, black pants and footwear and a black Nike cap with white writing on it.
