EASTON, Md.- Easton police are looking for a suspect who tried to rob the High's convenience store on Elliott Road.

The incident occurred at around 10 p.m. Saturday. Store employees stated that a male suspect entered the store, approached one of the clerks and demanded money while motioning to his waist, to indicate he was armed. Before that clerk could respond, the suspect went to the back of the store and confronted another clerk and demanded money. This clerk told the suspect "no." The suspect then walked out of the store empty-handed.

Both clerks told police that the suspect appeared very nervous and attempted to conceal his face with his shirt. There were no reported injuries.  

The suspect was additionally described as white, unknown age, tall, large build and a fair complexion. He was last seen wearing a black T-shirt and possibly a blue or purple jacket.

Anyone with information about this incident is encouraged to call the Easton Police Department at (410) 822-1111 or the department's tip line at (410) 763-6140.
