– security guard shot to abdomen

A SECURITY guard is nursing a gunshot wound to his abdomen after he confronted a bandit during a robbery at the Electronics City store inside the Fogarty’s building on Friday.
The injured man’s last name was given as “Daniels.”Reports are that around 11:15 am, an employee attached to Unique Apartments in the city had moments earlier completed a business transaction at Republic Bank on Water Street and he assumed that he was being watched by persons. The man decided to enter the Fogarty’s building to allay his fears; however, he was soon confronted by the bandit.
The man, who was seen on CCTV footage wearing a blue top, with short pants and white hat, whipped out a firearm and grabbed a package the man was carrying. The package contained $1.2M.
The gunman then fired a shot as he exited the building and in the process, a bullet struck the security guard.
The wounded man was rushed to the Georgetown Public Hospital and was later transferred to a private medical institution. The police are investigating the incident.
