Feb 26, 2015 | 3:11 PM

Five people are in custody weeks after Prince Albert police released photos and details of a masked robbery and assault in a convenience store.

The Mac’s store in the 2800 block of Sixth Avenue East, and one of its employees were identified as the victims by its assistant manager.

When police responded to the Feb. 8 incident they found the employee at the business had been assaulted and then robbed.

The people arrested in connection with the incident come from a variety of northern Saskatchewan areas, including Sturgeon Lake, Thunder Bay, and Little Red River Cree Nation.

Terrence Emmerson Daniels, Jesse Gage Gustafson, Evan William Duquette, Maria Elizabeth Turner, and 17-year-old boy have all been charged with robbery with violence.

The males are also all facing a charge of committing an indictable offence while masked.

The men and woman are all between the ages of 17 and 24.

At the time, police said the suspects ran off with an undisclosed amount of money.
