Arrests at bottle store
Two men were arrested last evening after a fight broke out in the car-park of the Imperial Bottle Store, Barbadoes Street, when the men were stopped for suspected shop-lifting. The incident began shortly before 9 p.m. when the bottle store staff noticed three men taking items from the store, according to the police.
Several staff members followed the men into the car-park and a fight began when they tried to apprehend them. No-one was injured in the fight and two men will appear in court on charges relating to the incident. The third man was believed to have left the scene.
