Three held after botched robbery
Three men are in police custody, one night after they allegedly attempted to rob a 61-year-old Queenstown resident.
Police say that the men were apprehended moments after 61-year-old, Kalib Ellis, a lumber businessman informed them of the attempted robbery at his home early Saturday morning.
Reports are that the men used drums to climb on to Ellis’s roof but were prevented from gaining entry into Ellis’s premises after an alarm went off.
Ellis, the report added, instantly contacted the police after recognising one of the men. Earlier this week, armed bandits robbed businesswoman, Debbie Young, of Little Alliance, of a quantity of phone cards and money.
Young said that the men were armed with a knife and dealt her a cuff to her right eye then duct taped her hands and mouth.
The businesswoman was previously robbed. Police have since held a suspect in connection with that robbery.
