Police Deal With Road Rage And Robberies

Police are grabbing for the handlebar after two late night robberies involving bicycles. Sergeant Lori Magee says cops are following up after a 17-year-old was was approached by two people on bikes while he was walking on King Street. She says the second robbery took place a short while later at the corner of Main Street and Metcalf, again involving two men on bicycles.  Magee says she doesn't know if the two robberies are related yet.

Magee says police have arrested a 22-year-old man in connection with a Sunday night robbery in the north end. She says the victim was confined to his house using a weapon and did suffer minor injuries from the incident.

And a 56-year-old man will appear in court at a later date after displaying a case of road rage on Main Street West. A woman stopped her car after veering to avoid an oncoming vehicle when the other driver came over and assaulted her.
