Attempted armed robbery on Front Street

On Monday July 25th at approximately 10.00 a.m. is when the Emergency Central Dispatch received the first call of an armed robbery in progress at Hublot Little Europe located on Front Street across from Jump-up casino. Immediately several police patrols and Detectives were sent to the scene to investigate what had taken place.
On the scene the investigating officers learnt that three unknown masked men dressed in dark clothing, two of whom were carrying a sledge hammer and one with a gun had attempted to gain access into the establishment by smashing the glass door.
