Two men have been arrested in connection with a robbery that left a 22-year-old man in intensive care.

Police said that at 12.10 p.m. yesterday they had a report of a robbery at a home on Convict Bay Lane, St. George’s.

A Police spokesman said: “During the robbery a struggle ensued between one of the suspects and one of the occupants where the suspect used a blunt object to assault the victim.

“The other suspect brandished a bladed article at the second individual in the house. The suspects then escaped with a quantity of cash and jewelry. The bladed article was later recovered by Police.”

The victim, a 22-year-old George's man, was taken to the King Edward VII Memorial Hospital for treatment for head and facial injuries. He is currently in the Intensive Care Unit in a stable condition.
