TWO armed bandits robbed a 71-year-old female pastor and a 36-year-old woman at their Lama Drive Meadow Brook Gardens home in Georgetown at around 03:40 hours on Tuesday morning.

Police said the victims retired to bed and forgot to secure a wooden door in the upper flat of the house.
It is alleged that the 36-year-old woman woke up to someone walking in the hall, and as she investigated, she was confronted by two bandits, one of whom pointed a gun at her.

He demanded that she hands over money and gold but she told him she did not have any. The suspects then went into the pastor’s bedroom, woke her up and demanded money and gold.

She became afraid and handed over her valuables. The bandits managed to escape with a cellphone valued at $31,000, a laptop valued at $78,000 and two iPads valued at $28,000, along with another cellphone valued at $65,000; another laptop valued at $75,000; two television sets with a total value of $250,000 and $60,000 in cash. The robbery was reported to the police and they are investigating the incident.
