BANDIT KILLED BY ACCOMPLICE

May 12, 2016 News

A bandit identified as a former rank of the Tactical Services Unit, Eric Angel was on Monday night killed by his accomplice during an attempted robbery.

Around 23:00 hours the armed bandits attempted to rob a Brazilian shop owner at Eterinbang, Upper Cuyuni-Mazaruni.
According to Commander of ‘F’ Division Ravindradadt Budhram, the two suspects attacked the shop owner and the man put up a fight.
During the scuffle, one of the bandits accidentally stabbed his accomplice in the abdomen before escaping.
A source from the area told this publication that Angel, a father of two, hailed from Number 10 Village, West Coast Berbice. He had been laid off from his job as a private security guard just over two weeks ago.
It is reported that he got into an argument with another man. This resulted in him being asked to return his service weapon and leave the camp.
Instead of returning home he stuck around the “landing” and reportedly got involved with bad company during which they conspired to perpetrate a robbery.
Police ranks who were dispatched to the area on Tuesday have since retrieved the body and are making arrangements to have it flown back to the city. A search is on for the second accomplice to the robbery.
