A teenager and a 25-year-old man were arrested in connection with an armed robbery committed against a 20-year-old auto body technician in Covent Garden New Scheme, East Bank Demerara (EBD), on Monday.
Based on reports received, the victim was walking in the Covent Garden New Scheme with his cellular phone in his hand when two males on a motorcycle approached him from behind.
One of the suspects, who was reportedly armed with a handgun, dismounted the motorcycle, held the victim at gunpoint, and relieved him of his cell phone before escaping with his accomplice.
The matter was subsequently reported to the Police, and the cell phone was later recovered along with the arrest of the two suspects.
They were taken to the Providence Police Station and are assisting with the investigations.
