Hammer-wielding man robs Saskatoon restaurant

Dec 27, 2010 | 7:19 AM

It's not a robber's usual weapon of choice, but it worked for one man in Saskatoon.

Police say the man was armed with a hammer when he robbed a restaurant on the 1200 block of Idylwyld Drive North at about 4:16 a.m. Monday.

He threatened the staff and made off with a small amount of cash. No one was hurt.

Police say the suspect wore a black jacket, a black toque, and covered his face with a black neck warmer.

No arrests have been made.
