According to a police statement, just after 3:00hrs on Sunday December 13, 2015, 50-year-old Cheryl Embrack, of Grove Housing Scheme,, was entering her home when she was attacked by two men, one of whom was armed with a handgun.

The men took her into the house and took away a stereo set and a cell phone.

 Police say while the robbery was in progress neighbouring residents informed the police who responded and encountered the perpetrators as they were leaving the scene.

The police came under fire and returned fire during which one of the men was shot and injured and an unlicensed .32 pistol with 10 matching rounds was recovered.

Police have identified the injured man as 21-year-old Devon Forde of Stevedore Housing Scheme, Georgetown.

 He has been admitted to the GPHC where he is under guard.

His accomplice managed to escape and police investigations are in progress.

    Granger said he want all bandits to be brought in alive for him to pardon them.
    What is the matter for these stupid PPP police shooting and injuring shooting and killing our brothers whom are all members of one church or another.
    Granger want them to interrogate them so see if they would say is PPP instructing them to commit crimes and is PPP giving them guns.
