Police seek thief who beat and robbed woman on Mahogany Street

CrimePolice seek thief who beat and robbed woman on Mahogany Street

The level of crime being carried out by thieves knows no limits. Even women are now attacked, beaten and robbed by thieves, and police are looking for one such man.

A woman of Cet Site Street in the Gungulung Area of Lake I told police that at about 4:40 Friday morning, she was walking on Mahogany Street Extension, towards the Central American Boulevard, when she was attacked from behind by a man who was armed with a knife.

She quickly responded to the violence, but slipped and fell down onto the road. The shameless thief immediately began to kick and stomp her, and stole her bag containing $160, and her personal items, including an asthma spray.

The thief then ran towards Police Street, and escaped into the surrounding area. Police have detained a fisherman, 37, from the St. Martin De Porres area.
