The attempted robbery happened on Feb. 18 at a shop in Impact Plaza, near 152 Street and 101 Avenue.

The store’s manager said the crew of robbers sent a decoy customer in first to get past a set of security double doors. A group of four people, one of them brandishing a gun, then rushed in, he said.

The husband of one of the business owners confronted the group and was shot four times, but survived.

In March, RCMP announced multiple charges against Michael Onischuk, 36, and Larissa Cowan, 32, who were arrested in Calgary on Feb. 27. They remain in custody.
