Robbery and Attempted Robbery Reported Overnight, 29 September

Shortly after 2:00 this morning, 29 September, the 9-1-1 Communications Centre dispatched officers to a report of a robbery just outside the Everglo Bar on Bodden Town Road. A woman had just exited the bar when she was approached by a male who brandished a knife and demanded that she hand over her handbag. The culprit then fled in the direction of East End with the handbag, which contained a quantity of cash. The victim was not injured during the incident.

The suspect is described as being of brown complexion, with slim build, about 5’5” in height and weighing 125-130lbs. His hair was low cut and he was wearing a grey shirt and black shorts.

In another incident shortly before 10:00PM yesterday, 28 September, officers responded to a report of an attempted robbery at a liquor store on Hirst Road, Bodden Town. Two masked men approached the front door of the location and attempted to gain entry by forcing open the locked door. Upon being unsuccessful, they fled from the location on foot along Hirst Road.

Both men are described as being tall, and were wearing dark clothing.
