Woman arrested after unsuccessfully trying to rob Kamloops convenience store, police say

Failed robbery attempt

A woman was arrested following an attempted robbery last weekend at a North Shore convenience store.

Police were called to the 7-Eleven on Eighth Street and Richmond Avenue just before midnight on Sept. 11 for a report of an attempted robbery.

According to Mounties, the woman passed a threatening note to a store clerk demanding cash.

“When the request was denied, the woman left on foot but was located by police a short distance away and arrested,” RCMP Const. Crystal Evelyn said in a news release.

The woman was released pending the outcome of the investigation.
