Dig­i­cel (Trinidad & To­ba­go) has con­firmed that its Ex­pe­ri­ence Store in Port of Spain was robbed, with fake couri­ers mak­ing off “with a sum of cash”.

The Dig­i­cel Ex­pe­ri­ence Store—lo­cat­ed at In­de­pen­dence Square, Port of Spain—was closed for much of to­day to fa­cil­i­tate an in­ves­ti­ga­tion in­to the in­ci­dent.

In an of­fi­cial state­ment, the com­pa­ny re­vealed that it is work­ing close­ly with the Po­lice Ser­vice on the mat­ter.

“Armed per­pe­tra­tors, pos­ing as of­fi­cers from a se­cu­ri­ty cash-in-tran­sit com­pa­ny, made off with a sum of cash,” Dig­i­cel said in its re­lease.

“Dig­i­cel places top pri­or­i­ty on the safe­ty of its cus­tomers and em­ploy­ees and is ful­ly co­op­er­at­ing with the Trinidad and To­ba­go Po­lice Ser­vice (TTPS), who are ac­tive­ly in­ves­ti­gat­ing this mat­ter,” it stat­ed.

The com­pa­ny said it is “com­mit­ted to sup­port­ing law en­force­ment ef­forts to bring those re­spon­si­ble to jus­tice.”
