The Calcasieu Parish Sheriff's Office arrested a Lake Charles man for the armed robbery of a convenience store in the 1900 block of Sam Houston Jones Parkway in Lake Charles. A woman was also arrested for her involvement.

According to a media release from Kim Myers, deputies responded to a convenience store in the 1900 block of Sam Houston Jones Parkway on Monday, January 28, at about 12:40 am.
