NORTH MIAMI (CBSMiami) -- Police are hoping the community can help identify the young man seen on video involved in an armed robbery.

It happened August 18th at the Caraf Gas Station at 13705 N.W. 7th Avenue, around midnight.

Surveillance cameras from the gas station showed the suspect loitering in front of the store for a while until he approached a man pumping gas.

The suspect then pulls a gun on the man and demands his belongings, according to North Miami Police.

The victim suffered a non-life-threatening injury.

Anyone who recognizes the individual is urged to contact Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at (305) 471-TIPS.
