Thieves hit young entrepreneurs
Two young entrepreneurs who have ventured into the field of repairing cell phones and computers are in an unfortunate situation. Thieves broke into their stall at the Anna Regina Old Market and stole a quantity of cell phones, computers and flash drives.
The incident occurred mid of last week.
Popular businessman, Mark Mc Lean, explained that his son, Andre Mc Lean, and one of his colleagues, who are both partners in business said that Thursday morning he was confronted with a broken lock to one of his stalls.
Mc Lean said that he later realized that his son’s stall was broken into. Mc Lean said that after thorough scrutiny, he found that customers’ cell phones, computers and flash drives were all missing.
A report was subsequently lodged with the police at Anna Regina Police Station and members of the local Interim Management Committee. To date, Mc Lean said, no one has been arrested.
A week prior to the incident at the Anna Regina Old market, another businessman’s stall was broken into.
Business operatives are gravely concerned about the frequency and the manner in which their stalls are tampered with and broken into.
Only two security guards operate on a nightly basis at the Anna Regina Old market.
Business operatives are appealing particularly to the IMC to put proper mechanisms in place to avert burglary at the market.
