South Belfast Alliance MLA Anna Lo has condemned the knifepoint robbery of two women in Damascus Street in the Holylands area which took place at around 11pm last night.

Anna Lo MLA said: "There appears to be a deeply troubling trend in this area regarding knifepoint incidents. On Friday, three people were stabbed in a burglary in the same area and now this has happened.

Those involved in these despicable acts need to be caught and brought to justice immediately. Anyone who saw anything suspicious should call police and help them catch these thugs."
