Would-Be Thief Is Duct-Taped to Pole
December 14, 2004 5:14 PM EST
GEORGETOWN, Guyana - A would-be thief got a taste of his own medicine in Guyana when he was caught and attached to a utility pole with the same duct tape he intended to use to bind a family and rob them, police said Tuesday.
Sabanah Gravesande, 13, was watching television at her home Monday in the capital of Georgetown when two men entered her family's house and tried to tape her mouth shut, police said.
Neighbors heard her screams as she and her grandmother scuffled with the men, authorities said. Neighbors came to their assistance and caught one of the unidentified men, tying him by the neck to a nearby utility pole with the tape until police arrived and took him away.
His legs and hands were also duct-taped as hundreds of people looked on, some openly guffawing at the spectacle.
Police said they would charge the man later this week, indicating that he was a cocaine abuser trying to raise money to support his addiction.
Guyana, a former British colony in South America, has a population of 700,000. |
