The police are searching for two masked men who carried out a robbery on Monday night at the Sir Gas Station at New Road, Vreed-en-Hoop, West Coast Demerara, where two employees were assaulted.
The attack occurred around 9.45 pm as the employees were about to leave the gas station for the day.
The Guyana Police Force, in a statement, said the supervisor was about to exit the premises when the two suspects, both clad in black masks, ran into the gas station and held her up.
The report said one of the suspects then discharged a round into the air, before running to the security guard on duty and assaulting him.
The other suspect simultaneously forced the female supervisor back into the office, and demanded that she hand over the keys to the drawer, which had an undisclosed amount of cash.
He then proceeded to the back of the gas station where he met with another employee and dealt him a blow to the right side of his head with his weapon, injuring him.
The two then made good their escape in a white car, which was waiting a short distance away.
The security guard and the other employee were both escorted to the West Demerara Regional Hospital, where they were treated.
