Local icon finds himself in a jam after robbery
Northcote Manor resident Charlie Squire, otherwise known around Prince Albert as “The Jam Man,” was soundly asleep in his living room chair when he was robbed on Sunday, Feb. 7.
He said while he was asleep, tired from a long day of helping a friend, a woman entered his apartment and stole nearly $400 worth of cash from beside his chair.
“To be robbed like that, it shatters me,” Squire said. He has been helping charities such as Telemiracle for years by selling delicious homemade jams.
He had left his apartment door open to cool off his apartment. He said he’d been awoken by the woman who robbed him when she called into his apartment from the doorway, after she had allegedly already taken his money.
