Niagara Regional Police have arrested a 27-year-old Port Colborne man following an armed robbery at the People’s Jewellers store inside Seaway Mall.
Officers were called to the store just before 2:30 on Monday afternoon when a man took off with jewelry that he asked to try on after threatening an employee with a handgun.
Police later found the vehicle he was believed to have been driving, in a hotel parking lot near Lundy’s Lane and the QEW in Niagara Falls.
