Police on Saturday arrested a suspect after a man was assaulted and robbed as he sat in a vehicle outside a bar in George Town in the early morning.
The robbery, involving three masked men, occurred around 2:20am outside the bar on Shedden Road, near North Sound Road, police said.
The men fled the location in a vehicle, the RCIPS said in a statement.
Police issued descriptions of the three men, saying one was of dark complexion, medium build, about 5 feet, 11 inches tall, and was wearing a ski mask and a black jacket. Another was about 6 feet, 1 inch tall, of slim build, and wearing a mask covering his nose and chin. The third man was of larger build, about 5 feet, 11 inches tall, and was wearing a full mask.
Shortly after police responded to the robbery report, officers located a vehicle on Canal Point Drive which fitted the description of the one used by the suspects.
“Officers approached the vehicle and spoke to the driver who fit the description of one of the suspects. The man, age 23 of George Town, was arrested on suspicion of robbery. He remains in custody as investigations continue,” police said.
Anyone with information is asked to contact George Town CID at 949-4222, or leave an anonymous tip on the RCIPS’s confidential tip line at 949-7777, or via its website.
