Woman forced to drive around city with gunman in car


 

– Relieved of cash, cell phone; two children unharmed

With a gun held to her head, a 31-year-old woman was forced to drive around Georgetown on Saturday night with her two children, after a lone bandit managed to break into her car while it was parked at Camp and Middle Streets, Georgetown.
Luckily, Suzette Peters, a teacher of Melanie Damishana, East Coast Demerara, and her children were not harmed, but the suspect escaped with the victim’s money and cellular phone.
According to information received, Peters’ car developed some problems and she called for a friend’s assistance. When the friend left, she and her children went into a fast food outlet which is located in that area and spent some time.
It was upon their return to the vehicle that they were confronted by the gunman, who was already in the car, waiting on them.
Kaieteur News was informed that the individual, who brandished his weapon, demanded that the trio get into the vehicle and requested Peters to drive.
Reports are that the woman drove around Georgetown before the bandit exited her vehicle in Alberttown with her cash and cell phone.
A police report was made but no one has been arrested.
