Seaford- Delaware State Police is seeking the public’s assistance with identifying the pictured suspect who is wanted in connection to an armed robbery that occurred earlier this afternoon.

On April 2, 2021, at approximately 12:15 p.m., the 65-year-old male victim parked in the parking lot of the Middleford Deli located at 10056 Middleford Road, Seaford. As the victim was sitting in his vehicle, the suspect approached the passenger side window and knocked on it. The victim put down the window, and the suspect pointed a handgun at the victim and instructed him to hand over all of his money. The victim immediately exited his vehicle and ran to the business entrance as the suspect attempted to open the passenger side door of the victim’s vehicle but was unsuccessful. The victim gave the suspect an undisclosed amount of money for fear of what the suspect would do next. The suspect then fled the scene in a white Nissan Titan pickup truck.

The suspect is described as a white male, 30-40 years old, 5’8″-5’10”, and 175-195 lbs. He was last seen wearing blue jeans, a gray hoodie sweatshirt, and a black face mask covering.
