PORTLAND — A man dressed in black robbed the Hannaford at 295 Forest Ave. in Portland at 1:13 p.m. today, the Portland Police Department reported.

The man was of medium height and build, and he wore a black pullover jacket, dark or black pants, a black watch cap with a white band at the bottom, brown boots and a blue scarf-like material over his face, said Portland Officer Mark Keller. The report described the man as “light-skinned,” police said.

It was unknown if the man had a weapon when he demanded cash and left with an undetermined amount of money, Keller said.

“He approached the service desk and demanded money, which I imagine means there was the threat of a weapon, but there is no information about the weapon,” Keller said.

The robbery was still under investigation at 5:45 p.m.
