Regina police have charged four people, including a youth, following an alleged robbery in the city. Officers were called at about 5:30 p.m. on Monday to the 2300 block of 12th Avenue for a report of a robbery. Police say a 15-year-old boy told officers he and an adult woman were approached by a group of individuals who allegedly threatened to shoot him if he did not hand over his jacket. The suspects then discharged bear spray at the teen before fleeing with the jacket. At around 5:45 p.m. officers arrested three people matching the suspects’ descriptions. A fourth suspect was located a short time later. A 22-year-old, a 20-year-old and an 18-year-old are all charged with robbery and made their first court appearances on Feb. 17. A 16-year-old boy is also charged with robbery. He made his first appearance in Regina youth court at 9:30 a.m. Tuesday. The investigation is ongoing.
