Police found the man arrived on a blue and silver bike, went into the store and demanded money from the cashier, while holding a black handgun.

The suspect took off with some money east on Beaverdams toward Patricia Street.

The cashier was not hurt.

Police are looking for a man wearing a black mask with a white Air Jordan logo, which was found not far from the scene, along with the bike.
