Waterloo Regional Police say they have laid more charges in connection with a recent string of pizza delivery robberies in Kitchener.

Police say there were 11 robberies involving delivery drivers between May and November in which a gun or knife was used.

Most occurred near Courtland Avenue and Veronica Drive, police say.

Police initially arrested a 20-year-old Kitchener man on Nov. 22 in connection with four of the robberies.

They also conducted a search warrant at a home that same day, where they say officers found an airsoft pistol and numerous stolen items, including identification documents.
