12 held in Port-of-Spain exercise

Those arrested were held for outstanding warrants for robberies, larceny of vehicles, woundings, and other serious crimes.

Police believe that they may be able to get a major breakthrough in some recent robberies with the arrest of some of the suspects yesterday.

The exercise formed part of a new anti-crime initiative to deal with certain types of crime being committed in the city. Those arrested are expected to be placed on ID parade today.
