A shop owner and a client got the fright of their lives today when an armed and hooded man entered the shop and demanded money. No one was injured.

The police said the incident happened at around 3.45pm in Triq il-Flotta, Gzira.

The shop owner is a 48 and is from Msida while the client is a 31-year-old Serb who lives in Gzira.

The thief escaped in a vehicle and the amount stolen is minimal.

This is a very unfair comment. God knows what they have to face when they are chasing criminals. Its not the first time they are injured and even killed on duty.

Habib, taghmel x'taghmel, il-halliel dejjem isib irkaptu biex jilhaq il-ghan ta' rasu, i.e. jisierek! Inutli noqghdu inwahhlu f'dak u fl-iehor jew fil-pulizija, ghax il-halliel meta jiddeciedi li jisierqek, se jisierqek bil-pulizija fl-ghassa jew on the beat. Jekk irridu li f'Malta l-kriminalita ma tikbirx irridu jkollna pieni qawwija u horox anke ghal min jinqabad l-ewwel darba.

A few days ago the Mobile Squad managed to capture 2 thieves in flagrant at M`Xlokk. Unfortunately you cant catch them all im afraid, but some do get caught once in a while.

I agree! Re. Antoine Attard; if the police prefer a safer job they should apply for another career, not one where they take an oath to protect.

where in Europe you seen police on foot patrol ??? In Frankfurt - London - Rome -Paris - Brussels ???
In MALTA we see them in St Paul- Valletta - Sliema - Zeitun - Zurrieq and other villages
You are stuck to your coach, so won't notice.

Habib, il-pulizija hu bhal kull haddiem iehor, jekk ikollu cans jiskarta, dak ic-cans jiehdu.
