The National Police last week arrested four people, three men and a woman, in connection with 13 muggings and armed robberies carried out between 29 January and 19 March. None of the four have criminal records but they are members of the same sports club and all are addicted to gambling, hence their need for money to cover their bets and debts.

Oops. Corrected. Thank you.
Last line of penultimate paragraph "ski marks" I assume should read ski masks not skid marks!!!
Hopefully,very long prison sentences will be handed down to these thugs,being a gambling addict does not excuse the sheer terror that they have brought to innocent people.
