Gunmen instruct lecturer to lie on road as they escape with car
Two armed men on Thursday night walked up to a University of Guyana (UG) lecturer and demanded that he lie on the road as they escaped with his car, a sky blue Toyota Allion bearing registration number PNN 1871.
The stolen vehicle.
The man had just parked in front of his yard at Bel Air, Georgetown, and was about to open his gate when the two gunmen walked up to him from behind.
The victim, who asked for his name to be withheld, said that the incident occurred around 19:15 hrs. The men collected his car keys and cellular phone and demanded that he lie on the ground—in front of his yard, on the road. The men then jumped into his car and escaped. A report has been made to the police. The vehicle has two lotus logos on the front windscreen along with “Our Sweet Angel.”
The lecturer is offering a reward to anyone with information that would lead to the recovery of the vehicle. Those willing to assist can contact the victim on 643-6283 or call the nearest police station.
