Two women charged in connection with robberies in Dundee

Two women have been charged in connection with two robberies and an attempted robbery at a sheltered housing complex in Dundee.

The incidents happened at sites on Kinghorne Road and Wedderburn Street on Wednesday 17 and Thursday 18 February.

Both women, aged 21 and 40, are due to appear at Dundee Sheriff Court on Monday, 22 February.

Chief Inspector Ross Fitzgerald said: "Crimes such as these are reprehensible, they have the effect of undermining the usual sense of safety and security felt by residents.

"I hope the arrests reported today leave residents reassured and confident that their local officers are determined to keep them safe.

"I would like to extend my thanks to those members of the public who have contacted the police and offered that vital information which has helped progress our investigation and deliver quick arrests."
