The last of four suspects in an armed robbery that happened at a rest stop at Yellow Lake on Highway 3 has been arrested.
RCMP say two people were sleeping in a U-Haul van at the rest stop on June 20, when a man woke them up, threatened them with a firearm, and demanded their personal belongings.
The man then locked the pair in the back of their U-Haul and took off.
