Drumheller RCMP have apprehended two of the three persons responsible for the shocking gunpoint armed robbery at Mac’s Convenience Store on November 6.
Cruise Donovan, 23 years of age, and brother Chase Donovan, 19 years of age, have been charged under sections 344(b) and 351(2) of the Criminal Code, using a firearm in an armed robbery and wearing a mask with intent to commit a indictable offence.
The third suspect has been identified as Daylon Ker, 19 years of age. Kerr has been charged with the same offences and is being sought by RCMP.
“We have arrested two people and charged them. We have a couple more people we are attempting to locate,” said Staff Sergeant Art Hopkins.
The Donovan brothers will be appearing at Drumheller Provincial Court on Friday, November 22.
Macs was also the target of a second armed robbery last week. RCMP have identified a possible suspect.
“We believe we know who it is. It’s going to come down to a photograph lineup to know for sure,” said Hopkins.
The Drumheller RCMP would like to thank the many persons who provided information leading to these arrests.
“Virtually the armed robberies, as far as this office is concerned, have been solved,” said Hopkins.
Anyone with information that could help locate Kerr or otherwise assist in the investigation are asked to call the RCMP at 403-823-7590.
