Two men have been ar­rest­ed and are as­sist­ing the Pin­to Po­lice with their in­ves­ti­ga­tions in­to rob­beries in the dis­trict and oth­er re­lat­ed of­fences.

Of­fi­cial po­lice re­ports are that the men were ar­rest­ed dur­ing a po­lice ex­er­cise by of­fi­cers from the Pin­to Po­lice Post, on Sat­ur­day 17th Oc­to­ber 2020.

Based on in­for­ma­tion re­port­ed­ly re­ceived from one of the sus­pects, the of­fi­cers were di­rect­ed to a bushy area off Hoyte Av­enue where the sus­pect point­ed out the hid­ing place of a re­volver con­tain­ing four rounds of am­mu­ni­tion.

The items were re­trieved and tak­en to the po­lice post for pro­cess­ing.

The two men—one from Sand­stone Ex­ten­sion, De­mer­ara Road in Waller­field, and the oth­er from Ack­bar­al­li Trace, Mal­abar—cur­rent­ly are as­sist­ing the po­lice with sev­er­al re­ports of rob­beries and oth­er of­fences in the Pin­to dis­trict.
