Guyana, SA - Steel Pan stalwart Roy Geddes was on Thursday afternoon intercepted at his home by an armed bandit, who assaulted him and robbed him of his jewellery.
According to 72-year-old Geddes, at around 2:00 p.m. he was in the front yard of his Lot 190 Roxanne Burnham Garden home, tending to his flower plants when the lone bandit entered his yard and approached him.
The man, whom he said carried a "big gun", proceeded to gunbutt him in the head twice, during which time he relieved the shocked Geddes of his two gold chains from around his neck. The victim stated that the chains are worth over $100,000.
