Police in Thompson arrested a 16 year old on charges of Robbery with Firearm and Uttering Threats against a person.

  Last Thursday police were called to multiple incidents involving the youth.

Around 9 pm he was removed from a hotel bar in Thompson after he threatened employees he would return with a weapon and shoot-up the bar. After that, a taxi driver showed up at the RCMP detachment and said a youth had threatened to shoot him. A few minutes later police received reports that someone was robbed at gunpoint and that a vehicle parked at a school had been shot at with what appeared to be pellets from a BB gun.

RCMP found the youth Friday morning with a pellet gun rifle.
