Edmonton police have arrested and charged two men they believe are responsible for a string of vape store robberies that occurred across the city over the past two months.

Between Sept. 8 and Oct. 4 this year, officers responded to four reports of robberies at vape stores across the city and one arson, according to a news release from EPS on Wednesday. Two of the robberies allegedly involved two masked men who used firearms to steal cash and vape products on Sept. 8 and Sept. 17.

On Sept. 22, it was reported to police that two masked males drove a vehicle through the storefront and started a fire at the vape store that was previously robbed on Sept. 8.

Police say there were two other vape store robberies reported at separate locations on Oct. 1 and Oct. 4.

No injuries were reported.
