Two men, known to the police as serial robbers, were caught early yesterday morning after they robbed the Wild Caught Fresh Fish Depot at the Meadow Bank Wharf, Ruimveldt, East Bank Demerara.
One of the men was shot in both his legs by police, who responded swiftly to a report of the robbery, which occurred around 12.45am. Up to yesterday afternoon, he was admitted as a patient at the Georgetown Public Hospital (GPH) under police guard.
A Guyana Police Force statement said the two men carried out the attack with the help of another, who managed to escape.
