This offence reportedly occurred at about 6:30 a.m. on January 15 and was reported to the Dockyard Police Station by the couple\u2019s Piccadilly landlord.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

He told officers that the 62-year-old woman and her 67-year-old husband had been robbed at gunpoint by two masked men.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Both tenants reportedly are from the United States and were staying at Limora House at Willoughby Bay.<\/p>\n

Reports say the victims were on the patio drinking coffee, with the man working on his laptop, when two slim, dark-skinned males, carrying silver 9mm pistols, appeared out of nowhere.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Both were wearing dark-coloured clothing and black masks to
\nconceal their identity.<\/p>\n

The bandits reportedly walked up on the couple, pointed their weapons at them, and asked, \u201cWhey the money?\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Further reports are that the husband pointed out a bedroom upstairs, from which the bandits took US$2,000 and EC$3,000 in cash from his wife\u2019s hand bag, and they ransacked the entire
\nroom.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The perpetrators then proceeded downstairs, where they stole a Lenovo laptop valued at US$1,000.<\/p>\n

They exited the house and then stole a black Wrangler jeep, R4939, that was parked in the driveway and fled.<\/p>\n

The robbers apparently were able to gain entry into the property from an open gate on the northern side of the property.<\/p>\n
