LORAIN — A man brandishing a butcher knife robbed a discount store Wednesday in Lorain.

A store clerk for Dollarama Plus on Oberlin Avenue told police that an Hispanic man walked in shortly after 2 p.m. and handed her a note requesting all the cash in the register.

The man spoke broken English and was armed with a large butcher knife, according to the police report. He also indicated that he had a gun in his waistband.

The clerk opened both of the store’s cash registers and allowed the man to take an undetermined amount of money before he fled the store on foot.

He was described as short and wearing blue jeans with a gray jacket and hood.
