A 26-year-old man has been arrested in connection with a robbery that took place in Markham last November. Three other suspects are still at large. York Regional Police reported that the robbery occurred on the morning of November 20, 2024. Three masked suspects entered a store near Woodbine Avenue and Denison Street. They allegedly threatened employees and took stolen phones from the back room. The suspects fled the scene in a vehicle, which was later found abandoned in Toronto.
