Reports indicate that about 01:30 hrs Thursday morning, the security service contacted the proprietor of the business and informed him that an alarm was activated.

The security officers then visited the scene but no one was at the scene and, upon further investigation, it appeared that the robbers used the trench located behind the YMCA to escape with several cases of beverages and other valuables.

“It appears as if the persons knew how the alarm system was set up and tried to access the building where they thought there was no connection for the alarm, but they were wrong,” one security officer said.

The robbery was reported to the police as investigations continue.
