The suspect is known to the victim and inquires into this incident are underway.
Theft
Meantime, Police attended a store on Elliot Street in Pembroke yesterday at 2pm on a report of a theft. It appears that a clerk was in the store when a dark skinned thin male around 5’4” tall came into the store. A few minutes later a tall dark skinned male around 6’4” tall also came into the store, made a small purchase and then made good his escape with a white Apple laptop computer that was beside the cash register. The 5’4” tall man stood guard in the store and shortly after made his escape as well.
The 5’4” tall male is described as having a narrow face with pimples, a straight nose, short braided hair, wearing blue jeans and a navy jacket, while the second suspect is described as dark skinned, slim build, wearing a multi-coloured shirt with bright red on the sleeve with blue jeans.
Active inquires into this incident have commenced and anyone with any information is asked to contact the Hamilton Criminal Investigation Unit on 295-0011 or the confidential Crime Stoppers hotline on 800-8477.
Arrest
Police were on mobile patrol in the early hours of this morning in the area of East Broadway, Pembroke when they saw three cycles travelling at a high rate of speed leaving the City of Hamilton. The officers activated their emergency equipment and all the cycles refused to stop. Two cycles turned left onto Point Finger Road and made good their escape, while the other cycle continued northerly - nearly colliding with the north round-a-bout. He then turned onto Trimingham Hill where the rider struck the nearside curb and lost control of his cycle. Whilst dealing with the male, the officer smelled intoxicants on his breath and his speech was slurred. The man was arrested and cautioned and taken to the Hamilton Police Station where he refused to take the breathalyzer test. The suspect then became belligerent in the jail area and an incapacitant spray was used to bring the suspect under control. He then was detained.
