Authorities are searching for the man who stole a carton of cigarettes from a Salem gas station Monday morning.
Police said a man in his mid-20s stole Newport cigarettes from the Henny Penny gas station at the Salem rotary around 10:40 a.m. Nov. 13.
Surveillance footage shows him grabbing the carton from an employee's hands, then running from the store.
Authorities believe he got into a car just out of sight of the gas station. Troopers brought in K-9s to search the area but police said they lost the trail.
The suspect is clean shaven with short dark hair. Police said he was wearing a light-colored plaid flannel shirt.
Anyone with information on the robbery is urged to call the Salem Resident Troopers Office at 860-465-5455 or State Police Troop K at 860-537-7500. Calls will remain confidential.
