Recalling the incident, Ramnarine, who is a
Karate instructor, told Kaieteur News, “I jump in a bus from the
park to go to the gardens with some students. When I come out the
bus, three guys come up to me …one take me chain and tell the
other two ‘shoot him’”.
He added that the teen who snatched his chain
began running away and he then realised that his attackers did not
have a gun that they had wanted him to believe.
“A bus driver come up and ask me what happen
and we follow the one with the chain. He run on Hadfield Street. I
alert the nearby citizens and then I see Presidential Guards come
and catch him,” Ramnarine stated.
According to one of the karate students, the
three guys were in the bus with them and they were acting
suspiciously throughout the journey.
One of the Presidential Guards claimed, “We
saw the commotion and we decided to intervene. When we realise
what the matter was we chased him all the way to Hadfield Street.
We caught him and brought him back to the gardens where we
contacted the police.”
The police later detained Daniels and took him
to the Brickdam Police Station. The gold chain was still in his
possession when he was caught and it was handed over to the
police.
Ramnarine subsequently identified the chain as
his.
