Armed bandits flee after failed bid to break into East Canje business

Two armed bandits escaped after they failed to gain entry into an East Canje, Berbice beer garden during the wee hours of yesterday morning.

The men who were armed with a gun and cutlass were only able to cart off three cases of XL and half a case of beer from the bond located at the back of the owner’s house and business.

The men attempted to rob Ashana’s Beer Garden which is operated by Jagnarine Persaud also known as “Balram” at Number Two Village, East Canje, Berbice just before 3 am. A Superbet is also operated at the location.
