Police say this man robbed a Henderson smoke shop, Thursday, March 12, 2015.

Police are searching for a man they say robbed a Henderson smoke shop this afternoon and may have been involved in additional Las Vegas Valley robberies.

No one was injured in the armed robbery, which happened about 12:20 p.m. at Smoke Cigar and More Shop, located at 35 E. Horizon Ridge Parkway, according to Henderson officials.

The suspect entered the shop brandishing a weapon and demanded cash from the clerk, city officials said.

He is described as a white man 25 to 30 years old with an average build.

He was last seen wearing gray canvas shorts that went to his knees, a gray shirt with a "Big Black" logo, and a black cap with an unknown white logo, officials said.
