School Safety Measures Enable Swift Intervention and Student Support

Shortly before 10:00PM on Friday, 6 March, officers responded to a report of an armed robbery at a restaurant on North Church Street, just north of Arthur’s Way. It was reported that two masked men entered the establishment, one of whom was brandishing a firearm, the other a knife. They made their way behind the counter and confronted one of the employees, then stole two cell phones, and fled the location on bicycles, in the direction of Cruz Lane.

No shots were fired and no one was injured during the incident.

Both suspects were dressed in black hoodies, black pants, and masks, and both were wearing gloves.

Police conducted searches of nearby areas, and recovered two bicycles suspected to have been used by the men.

The matter is currently under investigation by George Town CID. Anyone with any information is asked to contact 949-4222.
