The Craig Old Road property

A Craig, East Bank Demerara family was left traumatised after a group of masked bandits attempted to break into their home on Friday morning.

The attack occurred around 2am at Lot 17 Old Road Craig and was allegedly committed by a group of about three to six men, whose faces were concealed. They were also armed with at least one gun as they opened fire at one of the members of the household during the attack.

At the time, Sara Bharrat and her 82-year-old grandmother, Phaganie Bhairo, known as ‘Aunty Myriel,’ were alone at home.
