Windsor police are hunting for a woman who brandished what looked like a gold-coloured pistol when she robbed two convenience stores last week.

The crimes occurred on Nov. 29 at a store in the 1500 block of Tecumseh Road West and another in the 1100 block of California Avenue.

The first robbery happened in the morning, shortly before 9:45 a.m., at the Tecumseh Road West address.

The lone employee told police a woman entered the business waving a gold-coloured firearm, demanding money and merchandise.

The suspect proceeded to take cash and goods, stuffed them into a grey plastic bag, and fled. She was last seen heading east on foot.

No one was hurt.

The employee described the robber as a white female, perhaps 30 to 40 years old, about five-foot-seven with a medium build.

At the time of the crime, she was wearing a dark-coloured coat with the hood pulled over her head, black tights, purple gloves, and red running shoes with white trimmed soles.
