The man arrested for armed robbery at the Husky gas station in Dauphin on June 24th has been sentenced.
18-year-old Michael Chartrand will be going to jail for 5 years.
On the evening of the incident, Chartrand entered the store carrying a long-barrelled gun and demanded money.
He then struck two employees with the gun, took cash and cigarettes, and fled on foot to a nearby apartment building and entered one of the units.
Officers evacuated tenants from nearby apartments and contained the area while a negotiator made contact with him.
Early in the morning he surrendered to the RCMP and was arrested.
The employees at the gas station had sustained minor injuries.
