Investigators believe Ronda was the slim, hat-wearing male who robbed the Shoppers Drug Mart at 7770 Tecumseh Rd. E. on the night of March 15.
The robber — who was wearing sunglasses and a winter hat with ear flaps — went to the store’s pharmacy and demanded narcotics. He appeared to be carrying a small silver handgun.
After seizing a small amount of prescription drugs, the robber fled to the parking lot, where he got into a waiting pickup truck that drove away.
Anyone with more information about this individual or this crime is encouraged to call investigators at 519-255-6700 ext. 4305.
