A 13-year-old boy was robbed of his watch on Thursday evening in De Hovel shopping center in Goirle. He was threatened with a boxing bracket by two older boys. The boys aged 15 and 16 were arrested a little later.
The boy walked around half past seven with two friends in De Hovel shopping center in Goirle when he was blocked the way by two other teenagers. They made a remark that the three had to be gone there. They did not seem impressed by the threat and walked away laughing.
The pair apparently didn’t like that. Moments later, the three friends were again met and threatened. In addition, one of the threats had a boxing bracket around his hand. With that, he took the watch of the 13-year-old victim. When the victim and his friends went through afterwards, they accidentally met an agent. They asked him for help and pointed out the suspects. They were arrested immediately.
