Windsor police are looking for help to identify two suspects after a local pharmacy was robbed at gunpoint.

It happened shortly before 11:30 a.m. Tuesday at a drugstore on Dougall Avenue near West Grand Boulevard. Witnesses told police that the pair walked into the pharmacy, then demanded money and prescription drugs. One of the suspects was carrying a handgun.

The pair fled the business with an undisclosed amount of cash and medication. Nobody was hurt.

The Major Crimes Branch has obtained photos of the suspects from the drugstore's security system, which are seen below. The first suspect, on the left, is described as a white male, 5'6" to 5'8" tall, with a medium build. He was wearing a black sweatshirt, grey gloves, grey mask with a white design, blue jeans, a white strap hanging out of a back pocket, and white shoes with a black stripe on the heel.  This suspect was armed with a black handgun.
