Police this morning were on scene at the McMillan Gas Station in Roseau as they investigate a robbery which took place at the establishment last week.
Reports suggest that three persons in police custody are assisting them in the investigation.
The three, in handcuffs, were taken to the gas station.
A curious crowd gathered while the police, with evidence markers, took photos of the various sections of the area in the vicinity and inside the gas station.
However the crowd subsided after the men were taken away by the police.
The McMillan Gas Station was robbed at gunpoint last Thursday in a series of robberies that have plagued the nation recently.
Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit has said the police are on top of the matter.
Hi, I want to say congratulations to the Police Department for apprehending the perpetrators of this robbery. I hope they put together a solid case where they can get a conviction in court because making an arrest do not guarantee a conviction. It is very troubling to see young men who are attending college would put themselves in such a situation. If they are convicted they should serve their time but we must provide some type of rehabilitation and skill to them . I came to Dominica for the Fest with five of my former co-workers and we felt safe and was very pleased with the Police presence we observed. (Love from NY)

what a shame while these healthy young men are refusing to work and go rob a 70 yrs old man dies at his work place at foncole. so you see then the youth say there is no work. young ladies even find themselves going out with these lazy bastards.what a shame.
The Courts are to slack with armed robbers one year not enough, 25years minimun should be the penalty for that crime because that is attempted murder to, they could shoot hard working Dominicans dead to get the money those evil two foot monsters must be put away for life

i am not so much into psting comments on DNO but when i read some of the foolish and ignorant comments some of you people post i must wonder where are we heading. if you have nothing to say just keep your mouth shut nah. when police dont solve crimes some of you all run allu A when they do you all still run allu A. its time that you ppl stop being on police officers backs. the funny thing is when its you all on the other end of the stick you all cry officer officer my ass
if these guys are found guilty then they should suffer the consequences. congratulations to the dominica police force

These police officers are so stupid and illiterate.. I can’t say much.
you can’t say much cuz you might have benefited from their illegal activities..i hope the pm was serious when he spoke about the 15 year sentence for gun related crimes..this is a perfect case to set an example if those three are indeed the culprits..20 years sounds fine to me.
There is a saying, it takes one to know one.
Cease insulting them. Show respect. 
By the looks of things…you really cannot say muc.You sound so illiterate.You posted the “dumbest”post on DNO.Left me to wonder,if you got from the money they stole.
the woman who made you was more foolish
Thanks to the police for doing such a superb job.
I thank God that that something positive happen because, this news or robbery is not good for our island. Thanks to the officers for a good start, now please state the case properly before the procecutor, so that justice can be done. Blessings to all.
Do they have they right people……hummmm…..with the record of our police, I ave to hear the men say they did it before I sing any praises to the police force….. That force is a joke.
apparently they didn’t have ski.. masks… u all serious nuh papa… crime don’t pay and it’s not a life u all ready for…. in miami or n.y u all would not survive an hour in that life… they didn’t have no gloves either… didn’t even pass vaseline on the cameras lol….. oh oh… good job to the cops… now let them pay to the full extent of the law… if they are college students like i heard then they should be offered counseling with no jail-time if all the lost possesions can be returned
if is college students..wha happen tuition doh pay yet?
counseling can be done while they serve their jail sentence. gangster they want to play then they have to be treated as gangsters.. all u think cellphones don’t have its dissadvantages?
police have suffisticated equipments to monitor you calls.technology my brethen..
You sick?.
IF ANYONE WAS THERE CAN YOU TELL ME WHO ARE THEY AND WHERE THEY ARE FROM?

Hear them….”wee see mister boy,see mister.,,,
See mister?..Zort toe vole….
the have to know when u do the crime u have to do time don’t hide your face
1 down, how many left to catch?
Hey! Give us a better photo. I know you have better photos because I was on site and took photos too.
When the robbery took place, most persons who commented bashed the Police for not doing their work. While the matter is still under investigation, those persons should now be acknowledging the Police for doing their work. The Police have 3 persons in custody assisting them. I will say congrats to the Police.
They also said that it is because of unemployment but how can COLLEGE Students be unemployed nuh?
who say is college students, that is if they well finish high school
It’s too early to congratulate the police. When we have a successful prosecution then we can praise the police. Suppose the three men who they now have in custody are released by the Police for lack of evidence?
On the contrary, I think we should congratulate the police on accomplishing a vital first step…apprehending the suspects (the judicial process will determine their guilt/innocence). Forensics is a process that should not be rushed. We should commend the process, rather than sit on the fence as non-contributing naysayers waiting for police to slip in order to start crowing.
Be patient Grassopper…all in due time.
You right and if their parents are of consecuence or politically linked you will hear chief Carrette stormering with lack of evidence.. All these are taken in consideration when crimes are comitted nowadays in Dominica.
ONLY TWO MINDLESS PEOPLE WOULD THIS LIKE THIS COMMENT THAT WHY YOU TWO CLONE STAY HUNGRY N FOOLISH…..
