Police are looking for a man they say is responsible for six robberies since last summer.
Between Aug. 16 and Feb. 7, the man allegedly robbed a TTC collector at Midland Station, a bank, two Beer Stores and two other stores.
Police said in all cases, he pulled out a gun and demanded cash, and during two of the robberies he wore a surgical-style mask.
He allegedly made off with money, cigarettes, and lottery tickets, and was seen fleeing in an older-model black Toyota Corolla, on a bike and on foot.
He is black, in his mid-20s, between five-foot-six and five-foot-eight, with long hair, possibly in dreadlocks, cornrows or an afro.
