Beryllium Limited has confirmed that one of its cash-in-transit vehicles was robbed in Liguanea, St Andrew Monday night.

The company says the thieves hijacked the vehicle, which was unmarked and carrying an undisclosed sum.

Reports are that gunfire erupted in the vicinity of a supermarket on Old Hope Road while Beryllium agents were collecting cash around 10 PM.

Berryllium says all agents deployed on that assignment are safe and accounted for.

The company says it’s cooperating fully with the police in the investigation and is unable to provide further details at this time given the active status of the probe and the sensitive nature of the company’s operations.

Beryllium, formerly Guardsman Armoured, is part of the Guardsman Group.

It provides currency management, cash logistics, and business process outsourcing services across Jamaica.

The company has been hit by a series of armed robberies, cash-in-transit heists, and automated banking machine break-ins in recent years.
