One person has been arrested after an incident at a commercial premises on Centre Street, Strathern yesterday.
About 9.45am, an unknown offender broke into a store and stole a handful of goods.
A worker at the store attempted to follow the offender, to which the offender presented a weapon.
The offender then fled to a nearby address, however, was located and apprehended by Police a short time later.
No one was injured during the incident.
A 34-year-old man was arrested and charged in relation to the incident.
He has been remanded in custody and is due to reappear at a later date.
Police hope this arrest brings reassurance to the community that this criminal behaviour is taken extremely seriously and we work hard to hold offenders to account.
