Armed bandits invaded a Liverpool, Corentyne, business on Wednesday evening and assaulted one of the owners and her son, leaving them both with injuries.
Sunderlall Ketwaroo, 59, of Lot 16 Liverpool Village, Corentyne, a farmer who operates a mini general store at his home with his wife, said she was at home with their son at the time of the attack.
He said they had decided against opening the shop on Wednesday since he left during the wee hours of the morning for the backdam while his relatives later left home to attend a funeral.
