Three adult males from Moose Jaw have been arrested following a robbery and assault on Sept. 29 that left the victim with non-life-threatening injuries that required medical attention. 

According to the press release from the Moose Jaw Police Service, the victim was allegedly lured into a residence where several people assaulted him and stole his belongings, before preventing him from leaving and taking his vehicle. The victim was then driven out of town later that day. 

On Sept. 30, MJPS took several suspects in the incident into custody after searching a residence on the 400 block of Athabasca St. E. and a residence on Chester Road. The victim’s vehicle was also later located in the possession of an adult male, resulting in another arrest.

Scott Bobbett and Nicholas Connolly have been charged with unlawful confinement, robbery, and assault with a weapon in relation to the incident, as well as numerous breach of court orders. 

Anesu Mafukidze has been charged with possession of stolen property worth over $5,000.

All three men are Moose Jaw residents and knew the victim prior to the incident.

Several other individuals were also taken into custody on unrelated charges and outstanding warrants, during the execution of the two search warrants.

The MJPS is continuing to investigate the incident.
