Lone gunman robs bar in Santa Cruz, St. Elizabeth

Thieves continue to plague bar and shop operators in St. Elizabeth.

The latest incident occurred last evening at a bar on Longwood Main Road in Santa Cruz.

Preliminary reports indicate that a female bartender and a patron were surprised by a man armed with a gun.

He was clad in a black long sleeve shirt, grey shorts, and brown timberland shoes, and sporting a black and white balaclava on his face.

Investigators say the gunman demanded the patrons lie on the floor.

He then searched the bar and made off with about $40,000 in cash from the bar, as well as a phone from the patron.

The gunman later fled on foot.
