(St. John’s, NL) November 14, 2024 – The Royal Newfoundland Constabulary (RNC) has made an arrest following three armed robberies in St. John’s.

On Tuesday (Nov. 11) around 9 p.m., Operational Patrol Services responded to an armed robbery at a convenience store on Main Road in Goulds where a suspect presented a weapon and demanded cash from an employee. The man responsible was located nearby and arrested.
