An armed robbery in Woodstock yesterday afternoon had every single available police officer converging on the scene.
Woodstock Police say, “all available officers, including Patrol, Criminal Investigations, Intelligence and Canine, responded” to the scene of the robbery that had just occurred around 4 o’clock at the Rexall Pharmacy, located in the Sobey’s Plaza, 379 Springbank Ave.
As the result of what’s called “an intensive effort,” a male suspect was identified and located at a Dundas St. west-end location.
A 21-year old Woodstock male is facing numerous charges, including Robbery and Weapons offences.
He will appear in Woodstock court for a bail hearing today.
