A 20-year-old man from New Bothwell has been arrested in connection with a robbery Sunday evening in the southern Manitoba community, RCMP say.
Police said two teenagers — 16 and 17 years old — were robbed at knifepoint while walking to a store around 7:30 p.m. The teens handed over what money they had and ran home to tell their parents about the incident.
St. Pierre-Jolys RCMP investigated, leading to the arrest of the suspect and seizure of the knife and clothing used during the robbery.
