POLICE are investigating the theft of a Toyota Premio PPP 628 from its owner Saturday night, while it was parked in front of his Diamond Housing Scheme, East Bank Demerara residence.

The owner, Tagepaul Fredrick, 27, said he parked his vehicle at home around midnight before heading to bed.

“I came home at 12 Saturday night and went to bed at 12:30. Normally the car is parked on the parapet in front the house. When I peeped outside, the vehicle was there.I got up at 8:00hrs Sunday [and] I discovered the car missing at 11:00hrs when I was heading out to church with the family,” he explained.

Adding that his brother-in-law, who lives at the same property returned home at 03:00hrs Sunday, Fredrick said he was told that the car was not there at that time but his brother-in-law did not find it strange, since the previous day he slept at his mother’s place in Diamond, EBD.

He said a report was made at the Diamond Police Station and based on investigations, his car was last seen on Sheriff Street Monday morning.
“My car is a white 2007 Premio with the front bumper painted in black, I also have on black 14 inch steel rims with the logo rise and star. The front windscreen below have a crack that can’t be missed, the two left side front doors have a dent and the right side tail light is not the original and has a dull colour,” he explained.

Anyone knowing the whereabouts of the car can contact Fredrick on 6025408 or the nearest Police Station.
