A Sydney man is scheduled to appear in Sydney Provincial Court today, to face charges for a robbery from a Wentworth Street, Sydney restaurant on September 18th.

Cape Breton Regional Police were called to Louann’s Cafe just after 10:00 AM, where it was reported that a person had grabbed a jar of ticket-sale money from the counter. When an employee ran outside after him, the suspect pushed her down to get away with the cash.

Through investigation, officers were able to identify the suspect, and while on patrol September 27th, they located and arrested him in the area of Prince Street in Sydney.

Matthew Alvaro Pabon, 32,  was later remanded to the Cape Breton Correctional Centre, charged with Robbery with Violence and two Breaches of previous Court-ordered conditions.
