Police response

One person arrested after armed robbery in Prince Albert

Mar 31, 2025 | 3:14 PM

In connection to an incident that happened Saturday evening in Prince Albert, a 26-year-old man has been charged with armed robbery and disguise with intent.

At approximately 5:50 p.m. police responded to a business in the 400 block of 15 Street E.

Upon arrival, officers learned no one had been physically injured. Further investigation determined two unknown males entered the business when one of the males brandished a firearm and demanded money.

The suspects then fled the scene with an undisclosed amount of money. Just over an hour later while patrolling the area near the South Hill Mall, officers located a male matching the description of the suspect with the firearm.

The male was arrested without further incident and upon a search of his person, a firearm was located and seized. The area was checked for the second suspect; however, officers were unable to locate anyone matching the description.
