Police Spokesman Ricardo Henson confirmed that the Texaco Star Mart was robbed and at least one of the three supermarkets that were robbed last week was again robbed Friday night. Henson said he did not have any details on the robberies since the officers were busy searching for the robbers. Henson promised to release more information on the spate of armed robberies that are currently taking place in the St. Peters area. On Thursday, several business persons on AT Illidge road complained about how the Police organized themselves this holiday season. The business persons said the police move around with heavy sirens warning the robbers and other culprits that they are on their way to look for them. One of the main concerns was the amount of officers that would respond to one crime scene while the other areas that are not properly lit are neglected.
Residents of St. Peters area said police blocked off the St. Peters Friday night.
