WINNIPEG—Police have charged a 15-year-old boy in a violent liquor store robbery that sent one worker to hospital in critical condition. A 15-year-old suspect, along with two others, entered the store armed with knives, Carver said. While the two accomplices stole liquor, the teen became enraged with staff and struck two women who work in the store in the face, he said. Police have said they receive reports of 10 to 20 thefts each day at liquor stores in Winnipeg alone. The union that represents liquor store workers said it welcomes the change, but more steps are needed.
