On Wednesday, January 1, 2025, at approximately 2:00 p.m., police were dispatched to a business in the 2200 block of Victoria Avenue for the report of a weapons offence involving a firearm. Information received indicated two suspects were outside of the business, holding a firearm. One of the suspects approached a victim and demanded items, but was unsuccessful.

- Robbery [CC 344 (1)(B)]; and
- Failure to Comply With Probation Order [CC 733.1 (1)].
Thirty-one year-old Destinee FLEMMING, of Edmonton, is also charged with:
- Robbery [CC 344 (1)(B)].
The accused made their first appearance on these charges in Provincial Court this morning, Thursday, January 2, 2025, at 9:30 a.m.
