Surrey RCMP is requesting the public’s help to identify the suspect in four separate gas station robberies that occurred in Cloverdale.

The Surrey RCMP Robbery Unit has taken conduct of what appears to be a string of robberies with similar circumstances that took place on January 18, 19, 23, and 27, 2021.

In all four robberies, the suspect targeted gas stations in Cloverdale, during the evening between the hours of 5:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m. In each of the reported incidents, the suspect entered the store, indicated he had a weapon and demanded money from the register.

The suspect is described as a 20-35 year old Caucasian male, slim build, between 5’3’ -5'7’ tall.

Anyone with information about these incidents, is asked to contact the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502, or Crime Stoppers, if they wish to remain anonymous, at 1-800-222-8477 or www.solvecrime.ca.
