Drumheller RCMP have recovered some evidence that could prove to be key in tracking down the culprit involved in an armed robbery early Wednesday morning. 
At about 2 a.m. on November 6, three masked men entered the Mac’s/Husky gas bar and convenience store on South Railway Avenue. One of the culprits produced a handgun and demanded money from the lone clerk. They then fled the store on foot making way with cash, cigarettes and lottery tickets.
The clerk was not injured and by Wednesday afternoon, the store had reopened for business.
Staff Sergeant Art Hopkins said the police are awaiting surveillance footage and have recovered some evidence near the scene.
“There were some items recovered today that were directly associated to the incident,” said Hopkins on Wednesday afternoon.
“The evidence recovered during the day will be subject to DNA analysis, and any person that has had to provide DNA will be identified.”
Drumheller RCMP continues to investigate the incident. If you have any information that could prove helpful, contact the Drumheller detachment at 403-823-7590. If you wish to remain anonymous and possibly qualify for a cash reward, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
