As I was driving along Liberty Avenue, I saw a black Land Rover car parked near a supermarket. Its lights were on. It seemed to me strange that the driver left them on. When I stopped behind it, I noticed there was someone in. It was a woman. I asked her if there was any problem. She replied that everything was all right. When I asked her what she was doing alone in the car, she replied, with an angry face, that her husband had gone to bring foodstuffs. Then I saw the man in a rush carrying a small bag and turning back to the car. I asked him what his name was. He answered that his name was Don. He informed me that he fetched food from the supermarket and tried to get into his car in a hurry. I ordered him to open the bag but he hesitated to open it and he tried to distract me . I warned him that he would face different charges if he didn’t respond. He opened the bag; it was full of money. I arrested Mr. Don and his wife and I took them to the police station for more investigations.
