A 19-year-old man has turned himself into city police after two separate armed robberies at Edmonton convenience stores last week prompted police to issue a public plea to identify the suspect.<\/p>\n

On Sept. 11, around 9:30 p.m., police said a man entered a convenience store near 118 Avenue and 34 Street, brandishing a knife at an employee and stealing cash from a register.<\/p>\n

Two days later, at around 9:50 p.m., the same suspect was reportedly seen entering a convenience store in the area of 118 Avenue and 103 Street, again brandishing a knife at an employee and taking cash from the register.<\/p>\n

Police said the man acted aggressively towards employees during both robberies. On Friday, police distributed surveillance camera footage and photos in an effort to identify the suspect.<\/p>\n

On Monday, police said a man over the weekend came forward and turned himself in.<\/p>\n

Gage Rader, 19, is facing two counts of robbery, possession of a dangerous weapon, carrying a concealed weapon and one count of breach of release condition stemming from charges from another alleged commercial robbery in Boyle, AB in May.<\/p>\n
