Two men are now in police custody following a violent robbery in the Perry Bay area on Monday morning that left a Bolans resident nursing stab wounds.
According to reports, the incident occurred around 9:45 a.m. while the victim was walking in the Tinning Village area. He was reportedly attacked by the two suspects, who robbed him of a grey knapsack containing a mobile phone and EC$100.
An altercation ensued during the robbery, during which the victim was stabbed. He was later taken for medical treatment and is currently receiving care.
The suspects were later confronted by police officers. During the encounter, one of the men, identified as Tristan Armstrong, was shot twice by law enforcement and is also undergoing medical treatment. Both men were subsequently apprehended as investigations continue.
This incident adds to a string of serious crimes that police have been responding to in recent days. Over the weekend, law enforcement also dealt with a shooting on Lovelace Road in Grays Farm and the discovery of a murder victim’s body in Bendals.
The two shots was revenge for last nights falling soldier? I know yall don’t really let things slide..

Wasn’t the police shot twice? Haha. I take that as revenge. Anyway, I’m glad that these officers are catching these suspects. They need to catch the ones who killed the Oliver

Pity that the MP for the area is clearly impotent in civilizing his constituents to even the basic expectations of residing among decent people. This yardie lifestyle must be erased before the yardie first-lasy becomes official!!!

These guys are Antiguans. And they don’t need that money. Check their bank accounts and you will see. At least the Dimouth don’t need it. Anyway all jokes aside this wasn’t a one time thing. I guess an officer got pissed
“During the encounter, one of the men, identified as Tristan Armstrong, was shot twice by law enforcement and is also undergoing medical treatment” not sure if I should be smiling. But if in fact you are guilty of robbing the man then tek what you get
