Police are investigating a suspected armed robbery when two men - one thought to be brandishing a gun - robbed a gas station.

The incident happened at 8.55 p.m. yesterday at the Boaz Island Shell gas station in Sandys.

A Police spokesman said: “Details about what occurred are unclear at this time, however it appears that two unknown men entered the gas station, one brandishing what appeared to be a firearm and the other brandishing a bladed article. They stole a quantity of cash before making good their escape. There were no reported injuries.”

The suspects are described as brown skinned, 5ft 7in and of slim build; one suspect was wearing a tan coloured long sleeve shirt and red pants, the other man was wearing all black clothing, including a black long sleeve T-shirt. Both suspects are believed to be in their late teens or early 20s.

Police are appealing for any witnesses to this incident or anyone with any information to contact the Somerset Criminal Investigation Unit on 234-1010 or the independent 24 hour confidential Crime Stoppers Bermuda hotline on 800-8477.
