3 robbers hunted after ‘large quantity’ of cash stolen

Police are looking for three thieves after the daylight robbery of a “large quantity” of cash from a man as he walked to his car.

A spokesman said a vehicle with three men inside pulled up alongside the victim as he walked to his own car on George Town’s Jasmine Lane.

Two of the men, one brandishing a machete, got out and demanded a bag, which contained the money.

The two went back to their vehicle and fled the scene. One appeared to wave a handgun as they drove away.

The incident happened about 3:45pm on Friday.
