It was reported that goods totalling some $6.5 million were removed from the store by the bandits. All of the mobile phones in the shop’s display, along with a quantity of watches, cameras and amplifiers, had been taken.
Employees of the cell phone store explained that persons from the area had called at approximately 02:00 hours yesterday to report that persons were breaking into the establishment.
Additional phone calls were made to the Brickdam Police Station, reporting the robbery, but when Kaieteur News visited the scene of the crime, at approximately noon yesterday, police ranks had reportedly not yet made an appearance.
