Police have a man and woman in custody after they say a teenaged boy and girl were robbed in Swan River, Man., on Tuesday.
RCMP say a 15-year-old girl and a 14-year-old boy had been walking on Main Street around 3:20 p.m. when two suspects, one armed with a hammer, demanded cash and other items.
Police say the suspects fled before officers arrived. No injuries have been reported.
Police say a male and female suspect were later arrested without incident.
A 20-year-old man and a 39-year-old woman, both from Swan River, have each been charged with robbery.
Both suspects remain in custody and were scheduled to appear in court Wednesday.
