Three armed robbers who targeted Tyler Alexander-Arnold and Dane Rashford, brothers of Premier League stars Trent Alexander-Arnold and Marcus Rashford, have been sentenced to jail.
The incident took place in January 2019 at a cafe in Moss Side, Manchester. The gang, armed with a gun, machete, and baseball bat, burst into the cafe and demanded the victims to hand over their belongings.
Tyler Alexander-Arnold was forced to give up the keys to his Range Rover, while Dane Rashford had a shotgun pointed at his face and his Rolex watch stolen.
Both victims sustained injuries during the robbery and needed stitches. The robbers fled in the stolen vehicle, but were later arrested by the police with stolen items and weapons found in their possession.
The trio received jail sentences ranging from 4 to 18 years for their crimes. The court described the robbery as a brazen and planned act committed in broad daylight.
