Police are investigating the theft of 28 car batteries from a man who was robbed at gunpoint and forced to drive to another area on Monday afternoon.

Police said the man was driving his Nissan Y12 AD Wagon near the Eastern Main Road and Churchill-Roosevelt Highway Link Road, El Socorro, around 1 pm when he encountered slow-moving traffic.

While he waited in traffic, a gunman approached the vehicle and opened the back seat door, while another bandit opened the front passenger door.
