Bandits on Friday morning held national youth coach and former national football player Vurlon Mills at gunpoint at his Lamaha Springs, Georgetown apartment and proceeded to rob him.

Police yesterday confirmed that the robbery involving two men occurred at around 3.30 am.

Stabroek News learnt that Mills, who works with the Guyana Football Federation was confronted by two men who blindfolded him with the sheets in his room and held him at gunpoint before tying him up.

The bandits then began to ransack his bedroom and apartment. The men carted off his television, laptop, cellular phone,  $100,000 in cash and other items. They then loaded the items into a Nissan Juke  which reportedly belongs to Mills’ mother and made good their escape.

Police later found the vehicle abandoned on the Eastern Highway close to Sophia and contacted him as the car had two numbers inscribed on it.
