Only in Canada.

Robbers wore toques, wielded hockey sticks

Niagara police are looking for two men who roughed up and robbed a variety store clerk in Vineland on Sunday night.

But instead of guns, knifes or even a baseball bat, police said the two suspects were armed with unofficial symbols of Canada, better suited for the ice or the road: hockey sticks.

The stick-up occurred shortly after 9 p.m. at Buzby�s Variety Store on Old Orchard Avenue.

The stick-wielding men entered the store and struck the lone clerk.

He received minor injuries and the pair fled in a vehicle with an undisclosed amount of cash.

Both suspects are described as men, 19 to 25 years old. One has a heavy build with a chubby face, pockmarked skin and had a dark-coloured beard.

The second man is thinner and wore a dark winter coat.

Both were wearing toques.

Anyone with information is asked to contact police at 905-688-4111, ext. 5421. Anonymous tips can be made to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

Did he actually strike the clerk with the stick - or was it a body check?

I have this mental image of two guys skating into a 7-11 and sandwiching the dude, then ripping out the register drawer and flying out holding it over their heads like the Stanley Cup. I'm sure that's not what happened, but still.
