Stabbing robbery of food delivery cyclist in Limassol
A 23-year-old working as a food delivery cyclist fell victim to an armed robbery in the early hours in Limassol, resulting in serious injury and the theft of a sum of money.
The incident occurred at approximately 1:30 a.m. on Omonia Street. The young man was delivering an order by bicycle when three individuals approached him and asked him to hand over the food. When he refused, the assailants beat him with their fists and with a metal object. Subsequently, one of the three is reported to have stabbed him with a blade in the abdomen.
After wounding him, the perpetrators grabbed €150 that he was carrying and disappeared.
The victim was taken to the city's hospital. Doctors established that he had multiple abrasions across his body, swelling in his right eye, and a superficial wound on the left side of his abdomen. He remained for further hospitalisation.
During the investigation that followed, it emerged that the 23-year-old was living illegally on the island. For this reason, he was arrested for illegal residence.
Limassol's Investigation Department is conducting an investigation to identify the three assailants.
