Police are looking for two young men after an armed robbery in Stratford.

On Wednesday, March 15th two men walked into the East End Variety Store around 11 p.m. Once inside they brandished a weapon and demanded money from the store clerk. As the pair grabbed an undetermined amount of cash they also scooped packages of cigarettes into a cooler bag before leaving the store on foot.

No injuries are being reported at this time.

The first suspect is thought to be between 16 or 17 and around 5'2" tall. He was wearing a dark coloured coat with brown rings around the sleeves and bottom.

Police believe the second man is around 17 or 18 and about 5'7". A bandana covered his face and he wore a dark coat or hoodie with red on the front, khaki pants, and blue running shoes.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Stratford Police Service at 519-271-4142 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477
