Four armed bandits dropped a .32 revolver, a black toque and a yellow glove after robbing
a 25-year-old woman of $4,500 around 02:00 hrs yesterday.
The gunmen also escaped with a cell phone and a handbag containing documents belonging to the victim, who has been identified as Komattie Kissoon, of Middle Road, La Penitence, Georgetown.
According to reports, Kissoon was in the lower flat of the house, relaxing in a chair when the bandits pounced on her.
Kaieteur News was informed that the woman was held at gunpoint by one of the four bandits, who demanded cash and valuables.
As the bandits were making their way out of the woman’s home, the police responded and gave chase but failed to apprehend the suspects.
In the process, the men dropped a .32 revolver, a black toque and a yellow glove.
Meanwhile, in another case, a woman returned home to her Da Silva Street, Newtown, residence only to find it burglarized.
Sharmila Mohamed said that she went home around 01:30 hrs yesterday to put on her lights but found her door partially opened and her home ransacked.
While the woman’s home was being ransacked, she was at a shop, that she operates along with her husband, about three doors from where she resides.
According to Mohamed, she lost $3M in cash and $1M worth in jewellery along with other documents.
Both cases are being investigated.
