TWO armed ‘CG bandits’ robbed a 49-year-old businesswoman of North Sophia, Georgetown, of her valuables in Kitty on Sunday.
Reports indicate that the duo stopped in the businesswoman’s path while she was walking in Pike Street. The rider then took out a black gun from his pants waist and pointed it in the direction of the victim and told her to hand over her belongings.
The woman, who was frozen with fear, did not have time to hand over anything, since the pillion rider snatched her handbag that was around her neck. The bandits then rode away, making good their escape. A report was made at the Kitty Police Station as investigations continue.
Meanwhile, on the same day, a 27-year-old Welfare Officer of South Ruimveldt Park, Georgetown, was robbed of his motorcycle by two armed bandits.
Reports indicate that the welfare officer was sitting on his motorcycle talking to his friends when the two men, both armed with hand guns, walked up to him. One of the men pointed a black hand gun at the victim and demanded his motorcycle keys.
The victim refused and the robber discharged two rounds into the air. The man then handed over the motorcycle keys. His stunned friends stood quietly as the two robbers hopped onto the motorcycle and made good their escape.
