ROBBERS CAUGHT.

ARRESTED AFTER JUMPING

An armed robbery committed by four men on board a sampan in the Yaumati typhoon shelter on the night of October 29, had a ecquel before Mr. E. 1. Wynne-Jones at the Kowloon Magistracy yesterday afternoon when two...mea charged with complicity.

wore

Sub Inspector Dorling conducted the prosecution" and outlining the case to his Worship, said that tho complainant's sampan was lying fast alongside the sea wall in the typhoon shelter. At about 9 o'clock on the night of October 29, a small dinghy went alongside the sampan. Two men boarded the complainant's craft undor the pretext that they were about to search for oplum.

A few minutes later tho mistress of the sampan was called onto a junk, which was also alongside the seawall, and was searched by one of the men from the dinghy. The woman was relieved of her purse and it was then that she realised that the men were robbers. She shouted for assistance and the man an the junk ran ashore, while tho two men on the sampan jumped into the water. One of these was re- scued by the woman's husband who was in the vicinity, while the other was captured by a friend who was on the sampan with the com- plainant.

The two men who had originally remained in the dinghy made good their escape.

The case was adjourned.
