Two weeks after a store clerk was robbed at gunpoint in the Winnipegosis area, Manitoba RCMP say one of two suspects believed to be involved has been arrested.

The robbery occurred in Camperville shortly before 6:00 p.m. on Feb. 25.

Mounties previously said the two male suspects made off with an undisclosed amount of money and “other items,” and the employee was not physically injured.

The pair fled in a four-door gold/grey-coloured vehicle with two smashed windows and a Manitoba dealer plate.
