The San Rafael Police Department released a composite sketch Tuesday of a man suspected in an armed robbery near Shoreline Parkway last week.

Lt. Raffaello Pata, the department’s forensic artist, produced the image based on descriptions from the victim. The robbery occurred at about 9:40 a.m. Thursday on the path between the Target store and Shoreline Park.

The robber was described as white, 25 to 30 years old and clean shaven with a medium build, short brown hair, a white T-shirt, black pants and skull tattoos on his left arm, police said.

The victim told police she was pushing her child in a stroller on the path when the man approached her and pointed a black handgun at her.

The robber asked the woman how much money she had and struck her neck with his hand when she took her wallet from her purse. Then he took the wallet and ran east toward Shoreline Park.

The San Rafael Police Department is asking anyone with potential information about the robber to call police at 415-485-3000 or Crime Stoppers at 800-222-8477. Crime Stoppers accepts anonymous tips in all languages and offers cash rewards for information leading to an arrest and conviction.
