By Aaron Humes: Police have detained two persons for questioning in relation to an armed robbery in Independence Village on Wednesday night.

Six workers at Three Brothers Wholesale in the Lester Richards area of the village say they were robbed by a group of men, masked and armed.

The group stole cell phones, the keys to the towhead truck, and the day’s sales of between 40 and 50 thousand dollars. For good measure three of them were gunbutted on the head during the robbery.

Police are investigating.
