Edmonton police are looking for the male they believe robbed two stores.
In both cases, the male pulled out a machete and demanded cash before fleeing.
The first store – a convenience store at 82 Street and 160 Avenue – was robbed May 17 just before 2 a.m.
Then, at 3 a.m. on May 23, a convenience store at 97 Street and 176 Avenue was targeted.
The suspect is described as being about 5'6" tall, having a slender build, and having dark hair and no facial hair.
He appeared to be wearing the same clothes during both robberies: a red bandana, light blue jacket, dark blue shirt, and dark pants with white stripes.
Anyone with information is asked to call Edmonton Police Service or Crime Stoppers.
