Gunmen rob women in salon

THREE women, who were at the Simone’s Beauty Salon on Joseph Pollydore Street, Lodge, on Emancipation Day, were robbed of their jewellery and cellular phones by two armed bandits. The victims are a 23-year-old makeup artist, a 30-year-old hairdresser and a 25-year-old woman. Police said the gunmen visited the salon on a motorcycle with an unknown registration number around 22:10 hrs. One of the men reportedly went into the salon and asked for Sharon. When he was told that no one with that name worked there, he pulled out a black handgun from his pants and pointed it at the three women. The other man then entered the salon and demanded that the victims lay on the floor. When the women complied, the two men took four gold rings, an LG cellphone valued $50,000, a foot chain, an iPhone 8 Plus, a Samsung Galaxy 9 Plus cellphone and a gold chain valued $340,000, from them. The bandits then made good their escape on the motorcycle to an unknown location. No shots were fired and no one was injured, the police said before adding that investigations are continuing into the armed robbery.
