They chased him onto a porch in Elliott Street and robbed him of almost $2,000, but he was not injured.

Then, at 3 a.m. on Monday, a 31-year-old St. George's man was attacked while getting into his car. He needed 36 stitches in his fingers after being set upon by a man waving a machete.

A 25-year-old Southampton man was robbed in Elliott Street early on Tuesday morning by two men and a woman. One of the gang led him to a derelict house where the other two were waiting. They put a knife to his neck and stole $250, but he was unhurt.
