A suspect has been re-arrested in connection with the fatal Pennywise robbery in September and is expected to face several charges—including murder.
Police sources told Guardian Media that the suspect, a soldier, was arrested around 4:30 pm on Friday, November 4, at the army base in La Romaine.
It is alleged that the soldier's car was part of the robbery on September 19 that left two Allied Security estate police officers dead and another injured.
According to reports, the 24-year-old soldier reported to police that his car was stolen at gunpoint by six assailants with high-powered rifles earlier in the afternoon of the day the heist occurred.
He was arrested the day after the robbery but released on September 24 after his attorney filed a habeas corpus writ.
Six assailants had opened fire with high-powered firearms on an Allied Security van with three security officers as they were leaving Pennywise Plaza after collecting cash.
Two of the officers, Jeffrey Peters and Jerry Stuart, were fatally shot, while their colleague Peola Baptiste was seriously injured.
Another security guard from a different firm who was on duty on the Pennywise compound also was injured during the attack.
Four of the suspects, identified as Kyle Ramdhan, Keyon Ramdhan, Greg Dodough and Deaundre Montrose, subsequently were shot dead by the police.
