Pepper spray fired at Oakridge Mall

A robbery at Oakridge Mall this afternoon resulted in the evacuation of the food court after pepper spray was let-off.

Vancouver Police Constable Brian Montague says a man agreed to meet another person at the mall after hooking up through Craigslist to sell an item.

“There was an agreement between the person selling this item and an apparent suspect to meet at oakridge mall and instead of purchasing the item the suspect at this point looks like pulled out pepper spray and sprayed the victim and took the item from him.”

Montague says three people were treated at the scene and released.
