An off-duty Niagara Region police officer helped store security guards subdue two suspects, one armed with a knife, after an attempted robbery at a Walmart in Niagara Falls on Wednesday.
At around 6:30 p.m., the Niagara Regional Police Service received a 911 call indicating there was a theft in progress at the Walmart at 7481 Oakwood Drive in Niagara Falls.
The female suspect had allegedly failed to pay for various items upon exiting the Walmart, and she was approached by store security and advised she was being place under arrest. A male acquaintance of the female suspect then allegedly drew a knife and threatened to stab the off-duty officer. “The off-duty officer did not sustain any injuries nor did either of the two suspects. The involved knife has been recovered and seized as evidence to the offence.”
