Jeweler Robbed In City
posted (May 9, 2012)
A jeweler was robbed at gunpoint in the city this afternoon. At 5:00 pm, "Juniour" Medina had just closed up his jewelry store on New Road and went around the corner to his home on Pickstock Street.

It's just a few feet away, but two men were waylaying him.

They timed his arrival and walked up on him just as he was heading into his yard. They pointed a gun at him and his assistant - and made off with a bag full of an undisclosed amount of jewelry and cash.

The robbers then ran off, both of them leaving their slippers behind.

Residents hope that they were picked up on the security camera of an adjacent establishment.
