Darpan News Desk, 26 Aug, 2018 04:36 PM

    A 36-year-old man was taken into custody in Abbotsford, B.C. following reports of a robbery Saturday morning.

     

    Police released details of an incident that led to a police action on a home at Clearbrook Road and Fir Avenue, leading to the arrest of the 36-year-old man for uttering threats and robbery.

     

    "Without provocation, the male kicked a car attempting to park, threatened to shoot the two occupants inside and took their cellphone," the police force said on Twitter.

     
     
     
     
     

    Abbotsford Police Department received a report of a “suspicious circumstance, which turned out to be a robbery and uttering threats call,” said Staff Sgt. Paul Dhillon with the force.

     

    “We contained the residence and made some calls. The subject of the complaint came out of the residence, so he was compliant, and was taken into custody,” Dhillon said. “We’re continuing our investigation.”
