Bolesławiec and Wrocław police arrested two men suspected of robbing a bar and a petrol station. The perpetrators stole several thousand złotys and mobile phones. Both are residents of the Nowogrodziec commune (aged 22 and 27).
Both incidents took place in January. Each time, the scenario was similar: one of the arrested men terrorised employees with a replica firearm, demanding money and phones, while the other waited in a car.
The police recovered the stolen property. The perpetrators were placed in police custody. They face up to 12 years in prison.
Update: 2009-01-29 12:00
As portal IstotneInformacje.pl has learned, the District Court in Bolesławiec remanded both men in custody for two months.
