Kaieteur News- A man was forced to take refuge inside a sports bar after he initiated a fight at a Superbet located along the Leonora Public Road, West Coast Demerara (WCD).
Police, in a statement said that ranks were investigating a report of an alleged public fighting, involving Javier Kubair and others which occurred about 20:15hrs on Friday at Jit’s Superbet, Leonora Public Road, WCD.
It was disclosed during enquiries that on the aforementioned time and date, Kubair was at the Superbet outlet below the District Bar, which is located on the western side of the Leonora Public Road when an altercation started between him (Kubair) and other customers within the Superbet shop over the purchasing of bets.
“It is alleged that Kubair wanted to purchase bets before other customers who were in front of him and in doing so, he got into a confrontation with Fazal Jabbar, a 24-year-old of Patentia, West Bank Demerara; Donia Alleyne, a 42-year-old businessman of Anna Catherina, WCD, and others,” police said.
Kubair reportedly left the Superbet shop and went to his vehicle arming himself with a cutlass. Upon return, he proceeded to threaten and attack the customers, who in retaliation armed themselves with rocks and pieces of wood which they threw in Kubair’s direction.
Kubair then retreated and sought refuge inside the District Sports Bar. Thereafter, the police were summoned.
Ranks attached to the Anti-Crime Patrol responded and Kubair along with several others were contacted and taken to the Leonora Police Station, where their reports and statements were documented.
Investigations are ongoing.
