OLD BRIDGE, N.J. (1010 WINS) -- Police released surveillance video on Tuesday of a suspect they are looking to identify for zip-tying and robbing a New Jersey 7-Eleven worker at gunpoint last month.

At approximately 4 a.m. on Feb. 28, the 7-Eleven located on Route 9 in Old Bridge, was robbed at gunpoint, officials said.

The suspect physically assaulted the store employee and zip tied his hands and feet but later he removed the zip ties from the victim’s legs when he needed assistance in opening the registers, Old Bridge police said.

The suspect stole an unknown amount of cash and cigarettes.

Anyone who can identity the suspect in the video is urged to contact Detective Phil Belgio at (732) 721-5600 x3141 or email at pbelgio@oldbridge.com.
