A pair of violent armed robbers who "terrified" two grocery delivery drivers at gunpoint and described themselves as ‘Mafia’ have been jailed. One of the victims had an imitation firearm pointed in her face before she was threatened with being shot in Stepnall Heights, Boughton, near Ollerton.
She was then dragged from the van and struck several times over the head with the weapon during the robbery. The other victim was also punched to the head before the robbers took two mobile phones and £20 in cash from inside the van.
The two victims were delivering fruit and vegetables around Boughton when they came under attack on December 23, 2021. Keegan Garland, 28, and Jake O’Brien., 26, were identified and arrested by detectives.
