Gunmen shoot two in Grove robbery

Feb 21, 2010 News

Shortly after 19:00 hours last night, five gunmen descended on the business place of the Gopauls. At the time the proprietor, the elder Gopaul was about to close the business place he operates at 157 Grove Squatting area.
After bursting into the place the gunmen demanded cash and anything of value. As they were going about robbing the business place they manhandled the occupants.
Two of the businessman’s sons, Sieunandan Gopaul, 24, and his younger brother Boganda, decided to resist and were both shot for their efforts. Both were shot in the hip.
As they lay bleeding on the ground the gunmen emptied the cash register and then searched the home and removed whatever of value they could find, including more money.
In the end they escaped with an undisclosed sum of cash and valuables.
The two wounded men were rushed to the Georgetown Public Hospital where they were undergoing emergency treatment up to press time.
