The Regina Police Service (RPS) have laid charges after getting called to a restaurant on the 900-block of Victoria Avenue East on Thursday for reports of a robbery, the fourth in Regina just this week.
On Thursday, April 12, at approximately 12:36 a.m., RPS members arrived at the scene after a man, armed with a knife, entered the business demanding money.
After successfully obtaining an unknown amount, the suspect fled. Police confirmed that nobody was injured in this incident.
Later that morning, at approximately 5:20 a.m., members were called to another business on the 100-block of Albert Street for reports of a weapons offence.
Once police arrived on the scene, the suspect had already fled.
