A man robbed a north Spokane convenience store early Wednesday, police said.

The man walked into the Maid O’Clover, 2005 N. Hamilton, about 1:30 a.m. with one hand in his shirt and indicated he had a handgun, police said.

He told the clerk to open the cash register. He reached over and took some money and then walked north on Hamilton, police said.

The man is described as white, between the ages of 28 and 35, 5 feet 10 inches tall, 165 pounds, clean-shaven with short black hair. He was wearing a black sweat shirt, blue jeans and a white baseball cap with a black bill.
