Barrie police are investigating an armed robbery at a fast-food restaurant in the city's south end on Wednesday night.
Around 10:20 p.m., a masked man entered the Mapleview Drive West eatery armed with what was described as a large clever-stye knife and demanded money from the cash register.
Two employees working the counter complied and the suspect emptied the register drawer before fleeing on foot. Police say he was last seen heading southbound on Veterans Drive.
Neither employee suffered any injuries.
Police say they subsequently set up a perimeter, assisted by the K9 unit, but attempts to track the suspect were unsuccessful.
The suspect was seen on surveillance video wearing a black face covering, a blue hoodie, grey track pants, and black running shoes.
