The incident reportedly took place on Sunday, April 7, between 2pm and 3pm, on Pier Street. According to reports received by the authorities, a 19-year-old man was in the process of entering the back seat of a Hyundai i10 when two individuals wearing black ski masks approached him. One of the individuals was reported to be armed with a knife.

The assailants allegedly attempted to forcibly remove the man from the vehicle, with the intention, it is believed, of stealing his expensive coat. Fortunately, the driver of the car acted swiftly and drove away before any harm could be inflicted. Thankfully, no injuries were reported as a result of the incident.
