Three juveniles and a man in his 20s have been arrested by the Southern Division Taskforce, for their alleged involvement in an aggravated robbery in Wailoku yesterday.
A raid was conducted in Wailoku this morning, whereby the four were arrested and taken into custody at the Samabula Police Station, where they are currently being questioned.
This is after a CCTV video clearly shows an attempted robbery on a man by a group of young boys.
The man had parked his van to check on something at a Wailoku home, and as he was returning to his van, one of the young boys approached him, locked the man's arms behind him and pushed him on to the road.
At this time, another two young boys had jumped in.
The man eventually fought them off and drove away.
