Two motorcyclists this morning held up a 25-year-old man from Zabbar and escaped with cash he had in his car.
The police said in a statement the victim was held up in Guardamangia Hill, Pieta at around 9.50 a.m.
A hooded man walked towards him as he sat in his car, produced a knife and took a bag containing cash, from the back of the car.
Magistrate Audrey Demicoli appointed experts to help in an inquiry.
