A dri­ver at­tached to Fur­ness Trinidad Lim­it­ed was robbed at gun­point by three men yes­ter­day morn­ing as he left Sea Lots af­ter col­lect­ing mon­ey for his em­ploy­er.

The 48-year-old man had gone to Fur­ness Trinidad Lim­it­ed on Pro­duc­tion Dri­ve, Sea Lots, around 8 am, where he re­ceived an en­ve­lope con­tain­ing an undis­closed amount of cash be­fore leav­ing.

It is al­leged that as he wait­ed in stand­still traf­fic, prepar­ing to merge on­to the Churchill-Roo­sevelt High­way head­ing in­to Port-of-Spain, three men ap­proached his van. One, armed with a gun, came to the front pas­sen­ger door, while the oth­er two ap­proached the dri­ver’s door and the right rear pas­sen­ger door.
