Pennsylvania State Police are searching for a suspect who dressed in a clown mask and robbed a convenience store in the Poconos while wielding what appeared to be a samurai sword.
The armed robbery happened just before 5 a.m. on Oct. 13 at a Uni-Mart in Chestnuthill Township in Monroe County, police said Monday.
The suspect, described as a White male, entered through the rear of the store, brandished the samurai sword and demanded cash from the register, according to authorities.
Surveillance images show the suspect wearing a clown mask, white T-shirt and gray sweatpants as he unsheathes the sword.
