A 57-year-old man has been charged after a business was robbed at gunpoint in Watson. 

Humboldt RCMP were called about the robbery late Tuesday morning. 

Police say the suspect entered the business, pointed a firearm at two employees, and took some cash. The gun was not discharged in the robbery, and the suspect left the scene in a vehicle. RCMP seized a firearm at the scene, and later that morning a suspect was arrested in Wadena. 

Francis Tremblay of the RM of Lakeview faces six robbery and weapons-related charges and appeared in Provincial Court in Saskatoon.
