Two female tourists were robbed of a digital camera and personal belongings on Wednesday.

Police attended the scene on Malabar Road, Sandy's. The victims told officers they were riding rental cycles east on Malabar Road when three unknown men rode up next to them.

One of the men grabbed a pink plastic bag that was in the rental cycle's basket containing the camera and personal items. A struggle between one of the suspects and victim began with the suspect punching her in the face before escaping.

Officers located the suspects on Scott's Hill Road. A short chase began with one of the men being arrested.

Police are appealing for witnesses or anyone with information to contact the Somerset Criminal Investigation Unit of 234-1010.
