Trio busted for attempting to rob CH&PA Director

A 23-year-old man along with a 22-year-old, both labourers from Tucville, Georgetown, and a 22-year-old security guard from Cane View Squatting Area, Georgetown, were arrested on Friday after attempting to break into the home of a Director of Projects attached to the Central Housing and Planning Authority (CHPA) at his Tuschen New Housing Scheme, East Bank Essequibo (EBE), home.
Police stated that the victim was at his home when he exited through the western door to dispose of garbage, and as he returned inside, he secured the door and proceeded to his bedroom, where he checked his security cameras and observed four males entering his yard.

They were all wearing masks and reportedly approached the door, attempting to open it, but the victim immediately contacted the Police and raised an alarm.
Acting on separate information received, Police intercepted three males at Fisher Dam, Zeelugt, EBE. During a search, they found a black firearm with three matching rounds of ammunition in a haversack that was being carried by one of the men, and as such, he was taken into custody.
Police added that a further search was conducted on the other suspects, during which another firearm with three matching rounds of ammunition was found concealed on the 23-year-old, thus leading to his arrest.
The firearms and ammunition were taken to Leonora Police Station, where they were lodged while investigations continue. The Police have since retrieved CCTV footage that is being reviewed.
