The five attackers seen here in a surveillance camera screen-shot about to enter the business place

A gang of men on Friday morning stormed into a Superbet business place located at 51 Castello Housing Scheme, West La Penitence, Georgetown, and chopped a customer and assaulted the co-owner.

Trimella Archer-Stuart who runs the business along with her husband said she is still traumatized by the incident. She told the Sunday Stabroek that on Friday morning around 10:30am, she was in the cashier’s cage attending to three customers when she saw through her window, a gang of men enter her business compound.

They tried pushing the door open to enter with cutlasses with the intent to attack the customer who was inside. The customer in turn tried to keep the gang out by bracing against the door.
