Gunmen strike but nabbed soon after

Feb 04, 2010 News

About 17:30 hours yesterday, two men, one of whom was armed with a handgun, kicked open the door to a house at Duncan Street, Campbellville, and held the two occupants, Joseph Phillips, 30, of King Edward Street, Albouystown, and Albert Kelair, 49, at gunpoint.
They then took away $85,000 from their victims and escaped in a waiting taxi.
The matter was reported and quick response by the police led to the taxi driver being apprehended at Sheriff Street, Georgetown, with the motor vehicle.
Further investigations led to the arrest of the two other suspects in a house at Dowding Street, Kitty, and the recovery of a toy gun.
The two suspects arrested at Dowding Street were positively identified by the victims as the perpetrators and the motor vehicle was identified as the car used by them to escape after the robbery.
The three men are in police custody and the motor vehicle has been detained.
