Teen arrested as suspect in supermarket robbery

COLE BAY--Police arrested a fifteen-year-old boy on suspicion of armed robbery at Daily Extra Supermarket on November 19.

The supermarket was robbed by two men armed with a shotgun and a handgun around 8:45pm. One of the robbers struck an employee on the head with one of the guns. The employee was taken by ambulance to the hospital later for treatment. After collecting enough goods the men drove off in a small black vehicle.

A Simpson Bay police patrol was called shortly after the robbers had left. When officers arrived they conducted a search of the area and they found a vehicle with licence plate 3232AAA971 that matched the description of the robbers' car.

A teenager identified as K.D. (15) of St. Martin was found sitting in the car. Officers searched the vehicle and found a loaded shotgun lying on the back seat. The shotgun was confiscated and police plan to run tests on it.

K.D. was arrested on the spot and taken to the Philipsburg station for questioning. He remains in police custody.
