Santa Rosa Robber Caught
posted (July 19, 2019)
Security cameras captured a frightening robbery on Monday night in Santa Rosa Village, Stann Creek.

It played out at the Santa Rosa Mini Mart at 8:15. A gunman with a warm cap pulled over his face, strode into he store pointing a gun. He pushed two customers out, and held one by the counter. The terrified proprietor held up her hands, and went to the cash drawer where she handed him $3,000 dollars - which he ordered her to put into a plastic bag. She did that as fast as she could, even emptying out the small change into the bag. He collected all the cash, and then for good measure he slapped a customer in the head with the pistol as he ran out.

The good news in this ugly episode is that police formally arrested and charged 26 year old Rasheem Garnett from Independence village for Robbery.
