Halifax Regional Police have released the photo of a suspect wanted in connection with a robbery near NSCC's Ivany Campus.

Officers were called to a parking lot near 80 Mawiomi Place at around 10 a.m. on Thursday, September 1.

Police say a man threatened a woman getting out of a vehicle and demanded her keys.

HRP originally said he was carrying a walking stick at the time, but now say it is believed to have been either a stick or a pipe.

The victim wasn't hurt and the suspect left empty handed.

Police are looking for a man in his 40s, around 5'7″ with a slim build, salt and pepper hair and a beard.

He had been wearing a khaki-coloured hat, a dark long-sleeved shirt, jeans, black boots, blue sunglasses and a face mask. 

Anyone with information or video from the area is asked to call 902-490-5020 or submit an anonymous tip through Crime Stoppers.
