      After an armed robbery took place at a mall in the Whalley area of Surrey, police are seeking to identify both the male suspect as well as a female person of interest.

      Around 5:42 p.m. on October 27, a man entered the Chatr Mobile store in the Central City Shopping Centre in Surrey.

      He went behind the counter, stole cash from the cash box, and threatened the store employee with a weapon.

      The male suspect then fled on foot, leaving the mall through the west exit towards University Drive.

      He is described as a white adult male with a medium build and short brown hair. He was wearing a black hat with a Burton logo on it.

      After reviewing surveillance video, investigators released images of an adult female who is considered a person of interest in the incident.

      Anyone who can identify this person of interest or the suspect is asked to call the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502 or, to make an anonymous report, contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
