Three men were ar­rest­ed by of­fi­cers of the San Juan Crim­i­nal In­ves­ti­ga­tions De­part­ment (CID), fol­low­ing a re­port of kid­nap­ping and rob­bery with ag­gra­va­tion of a man on Tues­day af­ter­noon.

A 28-year-old Las Lo­mas man re­port­ed to po­lice that around 4:30 pm, on Tues­day 13th Ju­ly, 2021, he was stand­ing in the vicin­i­ty of the Aranguez over­pass await­ing a taxi, when a sil­ver Nis­san Note with three male oc­cu­pants pulled along­side him.

The man said he en­tered the ve­hi­cle and asked to be tak­en to San Juan. He said the dri­ver then pro­ceed­ed off route and locked the doors and sent up the win­dows.

The man said one of the oc­cu­pants put an ‘L’ shaped ob­ject wrapped in a cloth against his leg and pro­ceed­ed to rob him of a cel­lu­lar phone and a quan­ti­ty of cash.

He was then dropped off at the end of John­ny King Road, Aranguez, and the ve­hi­cle with the men sped off. The vic­tim made a re­port to the po­lice and in­ves­ti­ga­tions were launched by of­fi­cers of the San Juan CID.

Based on in­for­ma­tion re­ceived, of­fi­cers pro­ceed­ed to San Juan, where they ob­served the sil­ver Note ve­hi­cle with three male oc­cu­pants.

A search of the ve­hi­cle was con­duct­ed which re­sult­ed in of­fi­cers find­ing a cel­lu­lar phone match­ing the de­scrip­tion of the one which was re­port­ed stolen.
