Police are asking the public for help as they try to track down a man suspected of a carjacking as well as a separate armed robbery in southeast Edmonton on Monday.

They said officers were called to the parking lot of a medical clinic near 10 Avenue and 91 Street at around 10:30 a.m. after a man reportedly threatened a pregnant woman before stealing her pickup truck.

Police said they believe the same suspect also robbed a hotel at gunpoint near 101 Street and Ellerslie Road earlier in the day. They said hotel staff came across him as he was trying to break into a storage room.

Police are now looking for the stolen pickup truck which is described as a 2013 black Ford F-150 with Alberta licence plate BKP 8292.
