Police said a white male, with a blond beard and wearing a black North Face coat with dark green shoulders, and hood, entered the Boost Mobile Store and demanded money. The suspect produced a blue plastic bag and directed the store employee to fill the bag with money. During the robbery, the suspect concealed his right hand in his right pocket and gestured as if he had a firearm. After receiving the money, the suspect left the store and ran northbound across East Main Street, through the Valero Gas Station towards the Shop Rite Parking lot. 

The suspect stole approximately $600 prior to fleeing the scene, police said.

Any person able to assist in locating or identifying the suspect is asked to contact State Police BCI Investigator Adrian Melendez in Cortlandt at 914-769-2600 or at Adrian.Melendez@Troopers.NY.Gov.
