$60,000 robbery at Medford Gas Station

A supervisor at Medford Gas Station, Chaguanas, was robbed of $60,000 by two bandits on Sunday night.

Reports revealed that around 6.50 pm Nicole Fenton, a supervisor at the gas station was on duty when two men entered the gas station with a gift wrapped package and said that they had a present for the owner of the business. As Fenton took possession of the package, the men pointed a gun at her and ordered her to hand over the cash in a nearby vault. Fenton became afraid and made her way to the vault where she handed over $60,000 to the two men. The men later pointed the gun at a guard who was standing at the entrance with a guard dog. They then escaped in a silver grey car. A report was made to the Chaguanas Police and Snr Supt Phillip Carmona and Cpl Sylvester went to the scene along with fingerprint experts. The supervisor was interviewed and the gift box was seized and checked for prints. The guard was also interviewed by the police. An all Points Bulletin was sent out to all Police Divisions to be on the lookout for the car. Up until yesterday no arrests were made. Cpl Sylvester is continuing inquiries.
