A pedestrian intervened, when the suspect ran, allegedly taking property of the other man.
The Hanover Police Service started a search for a 23-year-old Brockton, Ont. man. He was wanted for robbery charges and two counts of breach of probation.
On the evening of July 5, police said an officer on patrol saw the suspect with another person on 6th Avenue in Hanover, when he ran through backyards.
