Less than an hour af­ter be­ing robbed by two men who en­tered their maxi taxi, a dri­ver and pas­sen­ger spot­ted the same ban­dits and alert­ed po­lice as the men board­ed an­oth­er minibus on Mon­day night.

Po­lice said the dri­ver and pas­sen­ger were trav­el­ling east along the Pri­or­i­ty Bus Route around 10.15 pm when they picked up two men in San Juan.

One of the men rang the bell to get out at the St Au­gus­tine tun­nel near the Uni­ver­si­ty of the West In­dies (UWI). As the men ex­it­ed, one of them pulled out a gun, point­ed it at the dri­ver and pas­sen­ger, and or­dered them to hand over their valu­ables.
