Selkirk RCMP are investigating three armed robberies that occurred within four days last week.
Police responded to a robbery at a business in the 200 block of Main Street on Feb. 4, just before 6:30 a.m., in which a suspect demanded money and cigarettes before fleeing on foot. A second robbery at the same business was reported on Feb. 7 around 4:15 a.m., again with the suspect fleeing on foot with cash.
Later that day, just before noon, RCMP responded to a third robbery at a business in the 300 block of Main Street, where the suspect demanded cash and fled on foot.
Investigators believe the same individual may be responsible for all three incidents. The suspect is described as approximately six feet tall, with a slim build, with brown eyes, and wearing a black face mask, black jacket and black-and-white shoes.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Selkirk RCMP at 204-482-1222 or Crime Stoppers anonymously at 1-800-222-8477 or online.
The investigation is ongoing.
