A lone gunman, armed with a Mauser pistol did not fare too well at 105 pin. yesterday following an armed robbery carried out singlehanded, at 94 Honan Road, where he stole $400 after having intimidated the inmates.
He did not expect that his victims would raise an alarm all the more so as he had told them that he would shoot if they did. Undeterred by these threats, one of the persons on the premises at the time raised the alarm, however, with the result that a Sikh watchman who was near the Scene, arrested the man.
