Caught red-handed

Before she left, Mum left strict instructions for me to finish my homework, take in the dry
clothes and water the plants. As I stepped out onto the porch and headed for the garden, I saw Mr
Lee, my neighbor, behaving in a strange manner. He looked as if he had just seen a ghost. Then, I
saw a man following him. A car with two occupants trailed them.
I knew something was amiss. I quickly hid behind some bushes. Three burly men followed Mr
Lee into his house. Once inside the house, the men held him at gunpoint. the gate and doors were
left ajar. I jumped over the fence and peeped through an open window.
Mr and Mrs Lee was herded into one corner of the living room where they were gagged and tied.
While one of the robber stood guard over them, the other two ransacked the whole house. The
robber who stood guard over the couple frisked Mr Lee's pockets and took all his cash from his
wallet. Next, he relieved Mrs Lee of her gold chain and bracelet.
I knew I had to do something. i ran down the road. Fortunately, I chanced upon two policemen
who were keeping surveillance in the area. I told them what I saw.
the robbers were caught unawares. There was a commotion as the robbers put up a struggle but
eventually they gave up. The policemen untied Mr and Mrs Lee and the robbers were
apprehended and taken tot he police station. Mr and Mrs Lee made a police report and thanked
me profusely for my help.
