Mon Repos resident Stephen Ramahlo was last night nursing two gunshot wounds to his legs and police were hunting three suspects following a late night home invasion at Lot 139 fourth Street Martyrsville, Mon Repos.
Ramalo was reportedly shot at around 23:00 hrs after he fought with the robbers.
His wife, Carmen Persaud, who was clearly traumatised at the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation last evening recounted the harrowing details.
According to Persaud the gunmen struck shortly after they had finished entertaining some guests.
She recalled that she was sitting in a chair waiting for her son to return from work when the incident occurred.
Her husband was in a bedroom at the time.
“My husband had just finished bathing and went in the room and one kick and the whole door fly open.”
She said that three men then entered the house and, “one come and said good night we were sent here.”
Persaud told this newspaper that the bandit said to her, “give me all the money” and when she replied that they didn’t have money, “he say tek out all de jewels and give me it.”
The woman said that the bandit assured her that, “me nah come fuh kill yuh but tek out dem (jewels) quick.”
She said that he subsequently told her to lie on the floor and he tied her with the telephone cable which he had removed.
The woman said that the other two bandits went into the room that her husband was in and he fought back with them and they shot him.
She said one of the bandits was Indian, another mixed and the other of African ancestry and none of them seemed older than 25 years of age.
One of them she described to be just under six feet tall, while the other two were short. “Dem young young between 20 to 25 not older than that. “
Ramahlo was reportedly shot in his thighs and were transported to GPHC by police ranks after they had been summoned .
