East Coast Demerara : At about 1:20 a.m. today, four men armed with firearms broke into the home of Justice Nicola Pierre, 43 years, at Felicity, East Coast Demerara (ECD), after overpowering and tying up the Special Constable on duty.
The perpetrators held up Nicola Pierre and her husband Mohamed Chand and son, during which she and her husband were assaulted, and took away a portable safe with money and jewellery and a suitcase with articles.
As the perpetrators were leaving the premises they were confronted by an armed security guard at a neighbouring residence, and there was an exchange of gunfire during which the perpetrators dropped the safe and suitcase and escaped.
The police responded to the report and investigations have led to the arrest of four men, who are in custody assisting with the investigations.
The two victims have been admitted to a private hospital.
