A suspect is being sought after an armed robbery earlier today at a Main Street South business.
Dauphin Mounties were called to the business just before 6:30 after reports of a man dressed all in black with a face mask and gloves swung a hammer in the direction of a clerk before stealing 30-35 packages of cigarettes.
Despite efforts of the store employees to keep him inside, the suspect was able to escape and flee the scene on foot.
The Police Dog Service was called in to help, but the dog was unable to pick up a track due to foot traffic in that area.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Dauphin detachment at 204-622-5020.
