The Melfort RCMP are asking for help to find a man and woman allegedly involved in an armed robbery.

On Tuesday at around 5 a.m., police received a report of a robbery at a home on Stovel Avenue East in Melfort.

Further investigation found that a man and a woman, both armed with firearms, entered a home and threatened the residents, before stealing items which included jewelry and car keys.

The two suspects then fled the scene in a vehicle, which they had stolen from outside.

Thankfully, the people in the house were not injured.
