Police say a woman has been charged after being accused of robbing a liquor store in Dartmouth.

According to Halifax Regional Police, officers were called on Saturday around 8 p.m. to the NSLC store at 210 Wyse Rd.

Staff told police a woman had been witnessed stealing the product.

When confronted by an employee, she allegedly assaulted the staff member.

There were no details on whether that employee was injured.
