The Guyana Police Force has boosted its transportation and anti-rioting capacity with the newest addition of an armoured vehicle.

The police  made the announcement on Saturday.

They said that the vehicle is being examined with the hope of deployment in light of the recent situation in the country which has led to death of a civilian, injuries to its ranks and infrastructural damage.
