Police on the East Coast of Demerara have arrested two teenage girls who are linked to the two bandits that escaped from the Paradise house in which 15-year-old Leon McCurdy was shot dead on Wednesday.
The girls who gave their ages as 17 and 18 years old were held in a house a few corners away from where McCurdy was killed, a few hours after the shooting.
Kaieteur News understands that ranks investigating Wednesday’s robbery and subsequent shooting, acting on information received, raided the house in search of the escaped bandits.
They did not find them, but they stumbled upon a laptop computer which they suspect to have been stolen since the two females who were in the house at the time could not give a proper explanation of how it was obtained.
A reliable source close to the investigation told this newspaper that the two teenagers admitted knowing the men, one of whom is reportedly the son of a late notorious prison escapee.
However, the girls claimed that they were not aware of the men’s operations. They also claimed that they had no knowledge that the men were involved in Wednesday’s robbery although they have not seen them since earlier that day.
On Wednesday, the two men along with McCurdy invaded the Paradise home of businessman Eon Evans. The businessman who is a licenced firearm holder managed to shoot McCurdy during a confrontation in his house.
