Windsor, Conn. (WTNH) - Windsor Police are looking for a man they say robbed a Mobil Gas Station at knife point while several customers were in the store.

Police say the incident happened around 8:30 p.m. at the Mobil Gas Station on Poquonock Avenue.

Police say the suspect entered the store carrying a black computer bag and allowed several people to cut in front of him. When he got to the counter, police say he tried to use a debit card and it was denied. At that point, police say he pulled out a large kitchen knife and demanded money.

The suspect left the store heading south on foot in the parking lot.

The suspect is described as a black male approximately six feet tall and thin build. Police say he has a goatee and was wearing a black New York Yankees baseball hat, along with a black shirt with faded black jeans. The suspect also wore a large ring on his right hand.

Windsor Police are asking anyone with information or anyone that may recognize the individual to call the Windsor Police Department at: (860) 688-5273.
