Police are investigating a public fighting incident on Friday outside a betting outlet at Leonora, West Coast Demerara.
According to a Police release, 23-year-old driver Javier Kubair was involved in a confrontation with 24-year-old JFazal Jabbar and 42-year-old Donia Alleyne after attempting to make a purchase before others who were in line before him.
Soon after, Kubair left and returned with a cutlass. He then reportedly attacked and threatened customers.
In retaliation, the customers reportedly armed themselves with rocks and pieces of wood and threw them at Kubair.
Kubair retreated and sought refuge inside the District Sports Bar. Thereafter, the Police were summoned.
Ranks from the Anti-Crime Patrol responded. Kubair and several others were contacted and escorted to the Leonora Police Station, where reports and statements were documented.
