Comox Valley RCMP are looking for help in identifying a suspect following a theft on Ryan Road last week.

On Tuesday, July 7, between 11:00 a.m. and 11:30 a.m., a young woman was walking on Ryan Road when an unknown man approached her from behind while riding a bicycle and grabbed cash from her hand.

He continued northbound along Ryan Road on the bicycle.

The victim was not physically injured during the incident.

The suspect is described as:

• Apparently Caucasian male
• Approximately 30 to 40 years old
• Dark brown or black hair
• Beard

RCMP are asking anyone who witnessed the incident, observed a man matching the suspect's description riding a bicycle in the area around the time of the theft, or who may have dash camera or surveillance footage from Ryan Road (and area) to contact them.
