2 TRCC Amigos Robbed Returning Home

2 TRCC Amigos Robbed Returning Home.

Two of the Mexican workers (Felipe and Luis) that collectively have worked ten years for TRCC, were robbed at gun point returning home for the winter. Fortunately, no one was hurt. The robbery took place between the Mexico City Airport and their homes.

Based on the few facts that Brent has, the robbers have spotters working in the airports. When they see individuals similar to Felipe and Luis getting off a plane from the U.S. with large boxes and more baggage than usual, they relay this info to individuals outside the airport, along with the make and model of the car they are driving and then rob them on route.

 As is normal, when they leave to return to Mexico, they take some cash as they have no credit cards. Felipe had just bought a new Canon Camera and Luis had a new TV and all this was taken along with gifts, all their clothes, passports, visas, i.d.’s etc. which have to be replaced.

Based on the prompt response of the three Golf Associations, (Men’s, Ladies’ 9 &18) the golf community raised an appropriate amount of money, based on Brent’s input, and he has wired the money to both men. We are sure that if they were here in person they would extend to all their sincerest appreciation.
