NO ARRESTS IN SPATE OF WEEKEND ROBBERIES

Police have made no arrests in a string of five weekend robberies on St. Thomas.
At 6 p.m. Friday, an employee of the Foot Locker store at Lockhart Gardens reported she was robbed. Later that night, a Bovoni woman told police she was held up at gunpoint, and in a third incident a woman was reportedly robbed by three masked men in the vicinity of the Super Pool Bar in Smith Bay. Early Saturday morning, a man told police he was robbed around midnight in Smith Bay.
