Gunmen rob technician of motorcycle, cash

A 52-year-old maintenance technician was on Monday night robbed of his motorcycle among other valuables when he was attacked by two armed men while making his way home.
Kurt Garner of Meadowbrook Drive, Georgetown was attacked just before midnight by two men who were armed with handguns.
Guyana Times understands that Garner was pushing his motorcycle into his yard when the men pounced on him from behind.
They reportedly held him at gunpoint and demanded that he hand over the keys to his motorcycle, and also ordered that he hand over his valuables.
The victim, however, did not comply with this request, and the bandits assaulted him before pushing him into his yard and ordering him to lie on the ground. They then reportedly dealt him several blows to the face before confiscating his motorcycle, his mobile phone, and $10,000 cash. In escaping, the armed men discharged a round in the air.
The victim reported the matter to the East La Penitence Police Station, and an investigation has been launched.
