An alleged thief who robbed a gas station in Nanaimo got a taste of their own medicine when another thief ended up making off with the stolen cash, according to RCMP.
Mounties say Karlee Pelletier, 27, was held in custody and later charged with several firearm-related offences following the theft at the Victoria Crescent Co-op gas station last Thursday, Oct. 13, when she allegedly pointed a toy gun at a clerk and demanded money from the till.
Once on scene, an officer located the suspect still in the parking lot and holding a small snub-nosed pistol, which they discovered “was nothing more than a plastic toy” after telling Pelletier to drop it along with the backpack. The officer noticed and began to chase them, arresting the 30-year-old unnamed suspect, who RCMP say was later released on charges pending, without incident.Sign up for our newsletter to get breaking news and daily digests sent to your email.Police later returned the stolen money to the gas station, with victim services also requested and “actively assisting the employees of the business,” RCMP said in the release.
