Armed suspect fled with cash, lottery tickets.
Police are asking for the public's help to identify an armed robbery suspect.
Around 12:05 a.m. on February 12th, officers responded to a hold up alarm at a Circle K store on Ferry Street near Main Street in Niagara Falls.
Investigators say a man entered the store around 11:48 p.m. on February 11th, and pointed a silver handgun at a clerk, demanding cash.
The suspect further threatened the clerk by "racking" the firearm.
The clerk handed cash over, and the suspect also reached over the counter and stole multiple lottery tickets before fleeing.
The clerk wasn't injured.
A police K9 unit searched the area, but the suspect wasn't found.
The suspect is described as a white male about 5'9 tall.
