Pair held over armed robberies
Print Edition
TWO men have been detained in connection with an investigation into two violent robberies last month in Qingpu District, local police said yesterday.
The first incident happened on May 23, when four assailants armed with knives and under the influence of alcohol broke into a workers’ hut on a construction site at 3:30am and threatened two men who were sleeping there, police said.
The attackers ordered the victims to hand over their money and mobile phones, which had a combined value of about 1,500 yuan (US$240), before binding the men’s wrists and fleeing the scene, police said.
The second case happened about 11pm on May 26, when a woman surnamed Hu was knocked off her motorbike by two men armed with sticks as she was riding along the road.
The assailants stole Hu’s cellphone and a gold bracelet before riding away on her bike, police said.
After studying footage from surveillance cameras close to the scenes of the two crimes, police determined that the men responsible for the second attack were also involved in the first.
Following an investigation, two suspects, surnamed Bu and He, were identified and apprehended, police said. The two other men are believed to have fled Shanghai and are being sought, they said.
