RIVERSIDE – The suspect involved in an armed robbery at the Circle K store located in the 3200 block of Interchange Street in the City of Riverside remains at large Monday evening authorities said.

At around 2:30 a.m. the suspect, believed to be Asian or Pacific Islander approached the clerk at the store counter, removed a handgun from his jacket pocket, and demanded cash. The clerk complied and the suspect took the money in the drawer and fled from the business in an awaiting older model green Ford Expedition (or similar vehicle), which fled south on the I-215. The suspect was described as 25-35-years-old, 6’2” tall, with long black hair, brown eyes, and short facial hair. He had what appeared to be two-star tattoos on his right cheek. He was last seen wearing light gray and black jacket, blue denim shorts, blue beanie cap, and sandals with black socks.
