Burglars hit Hairlox hard
Hairlox, Guyana
Burglars reportedly escaped with over $4M from Hairlox Guyana after breaking into the Lot 343 Middle Street, Georgetown business, last Sunday.
Kaieteur News understands that bandits broke into the premises around 23:00hrs by wrenching open the main door. They then ransacked the place and escaped with two safes containing $4M and an undisclosed amount of cash from a drawer.
Welton Clarke, of Remus Street, Agricola, East Bank Demerara said that he has been operating the cosmetic store for over eight years and this is the second time that his store had been burglarized in two years.
Clarke explained that he was at home when a tenant occupying the upper flat of the business called him and told him that the door was ajar.
He said that he became very suspicious because he was sure that he had secured the place before leaving.
The businessman said that on arrival at his business the said night, he noticed that a door lock was open.
He added that when he entered the building it was ransacked and the safes were missing. Also missing, he said, was cash from a drawer and a DVR for CCTV cameras.
Clarke said he reported the matter to police the following day.
