A female employee of Western Union is being questioned by police in relation to Monday’s robbery at the international money transfer agency’s Rodney Bay branch.
Reports are that the employee was detained by police on Tuesday evening and remains in police custody.
She has not been charged for the crime, a senior police told St. Lucia News Online (SNO) today (Dec.9).
Investigators said they are looking at all leads, including the possibility that it might have been an inside job.
It was confirmed on Tuesday that the armed bandit escaped with $61 000 in cash during the heist.
He walked away “calmly” after getting the money, a source said. The gunman was wearing a sunglasses and cap.
The camera system in the business place was not operational at the time of the robbery, but police sources said investigators are reviewing other camera footage in the Mall.
