The clerk working in the store told investigators a man walked in and pulled a gun out of his jacket pocket.
A Kamloops robber who held up a downtown shoe store last fall hid some of the cash he stole inside his backside.
Mounties were called to Red Wing Shoes, 237 Victoria St., at about 5:30 p.m. on Oct. 22 for a report of a hold up.“He demanded all the money — bills only,” Livingston said.The gun turned out to be an imitation firearm, but Livingston said video surveillance footage from the store shows that it appeared to be authentic.
“She doesn’t know any better in that moment and I can only suggest, your honour, that would be terrifying.” “In any event, he had some debts and he needed money in a hurry, and he made a fateful decision to go and get a toy gun and subject [the clerk] to the robbery,” he said.
