Earlier this morning the command centre, by way of CCTV, captured four motorcycles – all with riders and pillion riders – committing armed robberies at the eastern side of the Demerara Harbour Bridge.
The perpetrators then headed to Georgetown.
As a result, anti-crime patrols in Division 4A were immediately alerted and intercepted two of the suspects with one of the motorcycles.
The 23-year-old male was caught hiding in a dugout with water at North East La Penitence while the 15-year-old was arrested at James Street, Albouystown.
Police have recovered several items and both persons are in custody. Further searches for the other perpetrators are being conducted.
Persons are asked to visit the Brickdam Police Station and identify their belongings which include: three cellphones, a pink handbag, a female make-up kit, a lip gloss, $8,100.00 cash, two lighters, two packs of cigarettes, a bunch of keys, and a black 110 motorcycle without registration number.
