Clinic Robbery In OW Was Pure Terror
posted (May 14, 2013)
Tonight, police are providing startling details on the robbery that occurred yesterday afternoon at a Doctor's Office in Orange Walk.

As we told you last night, at about 1:30 pm, two men stormed into "Brigidos Dental and Medical Clinic" and held everyone at gunpoint. Today police say that a female doctor reported that while she was tending her patients a tall brown skinned man entered the clinic room, pointed a black handgun and asked for her husband. He demanded fifteen thousand dollars which he said both doctors had. His accomplice then tied up three patients with plastic straps.

They then robbed those patients of $450.00 dollars in cash. After that they pointed a gun to head of a 55year old woman who shouted for help. Dr. Angel Brigido – who was sleeping – heard the ruckus and walked outside, which is when one of the culprits fired a single shot towards him but missed. The thieves then ran out of the clinic and escaped. No arrests have been made.
