Romaine Travis Watson, a 26-year-old from Kuru Kuru, Soesdyke-Linden Highway, who is currently before court for a ‘carjacking’ charge, was arrested on Tuesday on the East Coast of Demerara with four car doors in his possession.

Police Headquarters reported that on January 3, a party of police ranks from Vigilance Police Station were on a mobile patrol in the vicinity of Annandale Market, when they observed a heavily tinted silver grey Premio car bearing registration # PVV 3945 driving off at a fast rate.

The vehicle, said to be owned by a Kuru Kururu Soesdyke Linden Highway resident, was then pursued by the ranks, bringing the car to a stop.

According to the police, Watson, who was at the time driving the vehicle, was detained.

“A search was carried out on Watson and the motor vehicle, where four silver Premio car doors were found. Two were in the back seat, and the other two were in the trunk.  As a result, he was told of the offence, cautioned and arrested,” the police release noted.

The investigation is ongoing.
