A 19-year-old Saskatoon man facing several robbery charges appeared in court Monday.

On April 23, police say there were several reports of elderly women being robbed of their purses by a man.

The next day, a convenience store in the 3000 block of Fairlight Drive was robbed by a male suspect using a knife to intimidate staff.

Police are asking anyone who may have been the victim of an attempted robbery to come forward.
