St. Albert RCMP investigating after four young people robbed in five days

Nobody was physically injured in the incidents

Two men have robbed four young people with what appears to be a firearm since last Thursday.

The St. Albert RCMP are investigating four potentially related armed robberies that have occurred between April 19 and April 20. The victims range in age between 10 and 20 years old.

The two suspects produce what looks like a firearm and demand the victim’s cell phone, wallet or other property.

There has been no physical contact and the victims have not suffered from any injuries.

The first suspect has been described as Asian or Filipino, thin, in his mid twenties and wearing a cross body bag. The man may have facial hair and noticeable acne. The second suspect is described as a black male with a short buzz cut.

The suspects have been using a vehicle that is described as a smaller, newer, silver four-door car, possibly a Ford Fusion. On April 20, they were also described as using a clean, newer, white small SUV.

All the victims were out walking or on bikes when they were approached and the suspect remains close to the vehicle.

The St. Albert RCMP is continuing an active investigation with assistance from the General Investigation Section. A composite drawing is being considered and may be released in the future.

If you have information about these incidents or suspects, please contact St. Albert RCMP at 780-458-7700 or contact your local police department. If you would like to remain anonymous, contact Crime Stoppers by phone at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477), online at p3tips.com, or with the P3 Tips app. Crime Stoppers does not collect information about your identity. A tip leading to an arrest may be eligible for a reward of up to $2,000.
