POLICE are looking for a white, new-model Toyota Premio and an armed bandit who shot a man in his thigh Saturday morning before robbing him.

The incident reportedly occurred on Barr and Alexander Streets, Kitty, where the 20-year-old victim, after being incapacitated, was relieved of a gold band and two finger rings.

Reports are that the youngster, who hails from suburban Prashad Nagar, was liming when he was attacked, and that after the suspect got what he wanted, he made off in a white car.

The victim, meanwhile, was taken to the Woodlands Hospital, where he was treated and sent away.

That same day, reports say, two men visiting the Meadow Bank squatting area to buy a car were robbed of their valuables by an armed bandit, who later fled on foot.

The perpetrator reportedly walked up behind the men, while they were inspecting the vehicle and committed the robbery. The bandit escaped with a cell-phone and a total of $175,000 in cash from the victims, identified as Bishram Latchman and Farouk Bacchus.
