Police are in search of a male suspect involved in two separate armed robberies in Trenton on Friday and Saturday.

The first happened at the Daisy Mart on Dundas Street West and Tripp Blvd in Trenton Friday morning. The suspect brandished a knife and demanded cash. The suspect made off on foot after the robbery.

A similar suspect who once again had a knife held up Price’s Variety on the corner of Princess Street and Byron Street. The suspect also fled on foot.

Police are still investigating and say they are looking for a male white, approximately 5 foot 6 to 5 foot 7 and unshaven.

Anyone with information about either of these incidents is asked to call the Quinte West OPP detachment or Crime Stoppers.
