London police are still searching for a man wanted in a knife-point robbery of a variety store.

Police were called out to the Lorne Mini-Mart on Lorne Avenue at English Street, shortly after 8 p.m., after a man was trying to steal lottery tickets.

The clerk was able to fight off the suspect, who left empty-handed.

Although, the clerk suffered some minor cuts during the incident.

The London Police K-9 unit was not able to locate the suspect, but he did drop a backpack and police also have surveillance video at their disposal.
