Helena police are looking for a man who robbed the Holiday gas station at gunpoint on Euclid Avenue late last night.

The armed robbery occurred around 1 a.m. on Wednesday.

The video released from the store's surveillance system shows the man walked into the store using the west entrance.

He then pointed what appears to be a semi-automatic pistol at the clerk and demanded money.

Helena Police Chief Troy McGee said, "He pointed it at the clerk and demanded cash. The clerk gave him the cash that he had in the cash drawer there. The suspect left the premises. He came in through the west doors out there and left through the west doors also."

The suspect is described as a thin white male, in his late teens or early twenties.

He was wearing black pants and a black and white camouglage ski jacket with a lime green collar and a hood.

The jacket also had an insignia on the shoulder, and the the man appears to be left-handed.

The robber walked out with a small amount of cash and headed south.

It's unknown if he was on foot or had a vehicle.

Anyone who recognizes the suspect or has information about the robbery is asked to contact Helena Police or Crimestoppers at 443-2000 or 442-3233.
