Police are investigating an alleged Robbery Under Arms which occurred on Sunday October 18, 2026, about 08:50hrs at East La Penitence, Georgetown, committed on a 31-year-old female teacher of the said area.
Preliminary investigations revealed that the victim was about to park her motorcycle and enter her yard when she was approached by two males on a red and white XR motorcycle.
The pillion rider reportedly dismounted the motorcycle, pointed a handgun at the victim and discharged two rounds before relieving her of a silver Haojue motorcycle bearing registration number CS 9982, a Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra cellular phone and GY$40,000 in cash.
The suspect subsequently rejoined the waiting motorcycle, after which both males made good their escape.
Police ranks visited the location, where one suspected .32-calibre spent shell was recovered. No injuries were reported.
CCTV footage from the surrounding area is being reviewed as part of the investigation.
No arrests have been made. Investigations are ongoing.
