Armed robbers get away with a Subaru Legacy

A 24-year-old man who was in the company of his wife lost a Subaru Legacy B4 and cellphones all worth $5 135 to three armed robbers along Ceres Road in Sunningdale 3, Harare.

The incident occurred at around 9.20 pm and police are still investigating the case.

"On the day in question, the complainant saw two large stones placed in the middle of the road and he stopped the vehicle and started reversing. Suddenly an unknown accused person stoned the complainant on the nose and his accomplice switched off the engine, while the third one produced a pistol and robbed the complainant of his vehicle and cellphones," Snr Asst Comm Charamba said.

Police have expressed concern over armed robbery cases countrywide with some of the cases believed to be committed by some unrepentant criminals that benefited from the recent Presidential amnesty.
