Gunman robs computer technician, housewife

A gunman is now being hunted by ranks of the “A” Division Police after he attacked and robbed computer technician Michael Francois-Johnson, 34, of Kitty, Georgetown and Dasha Cummings, 36, of Stewartville, West Coast Demerara at about 22:00h on Saturday night, while they were conversing in D’Andrade Street Newtown, Kitty, Georgetown.
Guyana Times understands that while the two persons were standing on the northern side of D’Andrade Street conversing, the lone gunman, who was unmasked, approached them from behind and held them at gunpoint.
He demanded that they hand over their valuables, and being fearful for their lives, both Johnson and Cummings complied with his request.
