The Trinidad and To­ba­go Po­lice Ser­vice and the De­fence Force have launched an in­ves­ti­ga­tion to de­ter­mine if four cam­ou­flage-clad men in­volved in a Mal­oney rob­bery and who fled in what ap­peared to be a Reg­i­ment-is­sued ve­hi­cle were sol­diers or im­per­son­ators.

Po­lice said the vic­tims, ages 19 and 32 years old, were sit­ting with oth­ers on the sec­ond floor of Build­ing 12, Mal­oney Gar­dens, around 10.45 pm when they were ap­proached by four masked men in cam­ou­flage cloth­ing.

The men re­port­ed­ly iden­ti­fied them­selves as sol­diers but did not pro­vide any of­fi­cial iden­ti­fi­ca­tion.
