A press man attached to Kaieteur News was on Friday robbed of his motorbike, police have confirmed.
Press man Roy Etkins age 50 was attacked about 11:45 hrs on Friday on the Lamaha Park Access Road and relieved of his motorcycle: a Honda black CB-125 motorcycle bearing registration number CK 5166 valued at G$290, 000. He was attacked by two armed unidentifiable males on a black motorcycle.
Enquiries disclosed that the victim was riding in a southerly direction along the Lamaha Park Access Road when the perpetrators rode up alongside him from the northerly direction. The armed pillion rider then pulled out a hand gun from his pants waist, pointed it in the direction of the victim which caused him to become fearful for his life where he fell to the road. The suspects then stopped, dismounted his motorcycle, and picked up the victim’s motorcycle and escaped.
No arrest made unto this time, investigation ongoing.
