Three bandits beat and robbed the guard and two other men at a Superbet shop in an attack at Leopold Street, Werk-en-Rust, Georgetown yesterday morning, which residents believe is gang-related.
Commander of ‘A’ Division Leslie James confirmed that the popular betting service was robbed by three “identifiable” men, who fired off shots during their escape.
According to James, around 9.40 am, the guard of the establishment, Wendell Maynard, was making his way out of the shop when two men, who were both armed with guns, pounced on him and demanded that he hand over the cash.
