K85,000 taken in Lae robbery

Police reported that the suspects walked into the main entrance of the administration building at around 9am on Thursday (March 24th).

The suspects had on them both factory and homemade guns.

Lae Metropolitan Commander Anthony Wagambie Jnr says that the suspects assaulted a female staff who refused to cooperate with them and then made off with K85,000 in cash as well as  three laptops.

Whilst police were alerted they could not catch up with the suspects as they made their way to the beach front and took off on a waiting speed boat.
