Police are asking the public to help identify a male suspect who attempted to rob a short-term loan store in Pickering.

According to reports, on Friday February 21, 2020, at approximately 8:30 p.m., police responded to the Pay 2 Day store on Liverpool Road near the 401 in Pickering. A male entered the Pay 2 Day store with his face covered and demanded 2 customers hand over their cellphones.
