In the first incident, shortly before 10:00pm on Sunday 20th April 2014, a man was about to enter his residence located St. Andrews Beach Estates, when two men armed with a handgun robbed him of a red Scooter, a laptop and a cell phone. One of the men drove off on the victim’s scooter, while the other man left in a waiting red vehicle occupied by two males.  

In the second incident, shortly before 5:00am on Monday 21st April 2014, a man had just arrived at his home located on Mackey Street, when two men armed with a handgun robbed him of a large amount of cash that he had in the trunk of his Chrysler vehicle. The men then fled on foot.

 Investigations are ongoing in both incidents.
