Police say a man is facing numerous charges in connection with a robbery at a drug store in Stratford on Sunday afternoon.

The 45-year-old male from the Greater Toronto Area was arrested in Huron County. No details have been released on the charges.

The robbery in Stratford occurred at the Sinclair Pharmacy on Wellington Street.

Police say the suspect is not connected with a similar robbery in Cambridge on Monday morning.

In both cases a suspect claiming to have a weapon demanded prescription drugs before fleeing on foot.
