Police have detained a suspect in the July 2013 heist in which 72-year-old gas station employee Victor Da Silva was killed and his employee Cecil Gajadar wounded.
Kaieteur News understands that the 28-year-old suspect, known as ‘Milo’, was arrested on Thursday on Waterloo Street.
Investigators were reportedly told that the suspect had driven the car that the bandits escaped in after shooting the victims.
Another man, 27-year-old Joseph Williams of Gordon Street Kitty, has already been charged for Da Silva’s murder.
It is alleged that Da Silva, of Lot 10 Covent Garden, East Bank Demerara and Gajadar, also 72, were heading by car to a Water Street bank on July 8, 2013, when three bandits shot at them.
Da Silva died at the scene after a bullet penetrated the windscreen and hit him in the chest, while Gajadar of Foulis/Enmore, East Coast Demerara sustained a gunshot wound to the side of his head.
The killers escaped with a bag containing some $8M.
