Police hope newly released surveillance photos from an armed robbery in Kentwood will help nab the suspect.
According to Red Deer RCMP, two men entered a Kentwood convenience store armed with pepper spray and a machete and demanded cash and cigarettes.
RCMP released surveillance photos on Wednesday of the second suspect from Tuesday’s robbery.
A 19-year-old man was arrested shortly after the 8 a.m. incident, after he was tracked by Police Dog Services.
Police describe the second suspect as a skinny Caucasian man about 1.82 metres (six feet) tall. He wore a face covering and a hoodie, but shed the disguise as he fled from police through Edgar Industrial Park.
The 19-year-old has been charged with armed robbery, possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose and wearing a disguise with the intent to commit an offence.
