Police Investigating Robbery and Vehicle Arson

Police in the Halifax area are investigating a robbery that occurred in Waverley and the possible get-away car was lit on fire.

At around 9 p.m. on Saturday night the RCMP responded to a report of a robbery at a gas station on Rocky Lake Drive.

RCMP officers who were nearby for an unrelated incident obtained the license plate of a blue Honda Civic leaving the area.

They tried to pull the car over but the driver refused to stop.

Later in the evening, the Halifax Regional Police received a report of a vehicle fire at a parking lot near Olivet Street and investigators determined that the license plate matched the vehicle involved in the robbery.

Two men believed to be involved are still at large.

They were both seen wearing black hoodies, gloves, and masks and one was wearing leather boots.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Halifax Regional Police at 902-490-5020 or Crime Stoppers 1-800-222-8477
