They say a man held up the store on Portage Road in Niagara Falls on Wednesday

Police are looking for a suspect after a Dairy Queen in Niagara Falls was robbed.

NRP were called to the store on Portage Road early Wednesday afternoon.

They were told a man ordered ice cream, but then told staff he had a gun, and demanded money.

Police have not told us how much he made off with, heading toward the Stanford Green Plaza, carrying a Dairy Queen paper bag just before 1pm.

He's white, in his late 50s to early 60s, with a thin build, clean shaven, stands about 5'8 to 5'10 feet, and was wearing a black baseball cap, black zip up jacket or sweater, black pants, and black shoes.

Call police if you know anything about this robbery.
