HALIFAX, N.S. – Halifax Regional Police (HRP) have arrested a man they believe responsible for the attempted robbery of a convenience store, as well as the subsequent robbery of gasoline from a service station. The 39-year-old suspect was reported to have entered Halifax’s Needs Convenience Store at about 3:25 a.m. on March 24 and demanded cash from a female store employee, according to an HRP press release. But after the worker didn’t give the man any money, he walked out of the store, without causing any bodily harm to the store employee. Less than half an hour later, the HRP received a report that someone had stolen gas from a nearby Ultramar station. Police located the suspect’s vehicle and took him into custody shortly afterwards. The man remained in police custody with an investigation ongoing and charges expected, the release noted.
