Four people are scheduled to appear in court tomorrow after two weekend robberies in Ile-a-la-Crosse.
One incident at a local business was reported around 5:30 pm Saturday afternoon.
RCMP say a masked man, with what appeared to be a handgun, threatened an employee. The suspect escaped in a vehicle with an undisclosed amount of cash.
Police say the vehicle was located a short time later, and after a high-risk takedown, the man was arrested.
On Sunday, three other people were arrested at a home in the community in relation to the same robbery.
Two of those people were also charged in connection with a home invasion and robbery that happened around 2:30 am that morning.
The four people charged with robbery are: 49-year-old Daniel Crooker, 23-year-old Sheldon Hanson, 23-year-old Brady Durocher and 27-year-old Jesse Durocher.
Various assault and weapons charges were also laid against the suspects.
All four accused remain in custody until their court appearances.
