Police are on the hunt for a man, who has only been identified as Orlando so far, following the alleged abduction of an 11-year-old girl at the Double Day Hotel, Tuschen, East Bank Essequibo.
Police said the girl, Adrianna Younge, went to the hotel’s pool with her grandmother, Carol Xavier, and other relatives at about 13:02 hrs Wednesday. The grandmother told ranks that she gave Adrianna money to purchase a band needed to swim in the pool.
Sometime after, the grandmother called to get her family out of the pool when it was discovered Adrianna was missing.
The family launched a search at the hotel but without success. The matter was then reported at the Tuschen Police Station.
Upon arrival at the scene, Police reportedly searched further in and around the hotel, including rooms, a store room, the yard, and the roof, but they came up empty-handed. Several cameras were seen attached to the building. However, when asked to view them, the manager indicated that they were not in working order.
The Command Centre in Regional Division #3 was contacted, and footage reviewed showed that Adrianna entered a red and black Raum motor car bearing registration number PSS 4684, which drove off in an eastern direction heading towards Vreed-en-hoop.
Information was received about the registered owner, who, when contacted, claimed he rented the car to one Orlando (no last name provided) since last week. Checks were made for the said Orlando at an address provided by the car owner, but Orlando was not found.
A trace of the vehicle from Georgetown Command Centre at about 20:58 hrs showed the vehicle in Onderneeming, West Bank Demerara at ‘White Shop’ shortcut.
Police Headquarters said officers are in pursuit as the investigation continues.
