The Guyana Police Force (GPF) is investigating a second explosion at a Guyana Power and Light (GPL) substation at Mandela Avenue, Georgetown.
In a release, Police Headquarters said the substation “experienced suspicious damage” in the wee hours of Saturday.
Earlier Saturday, it was reported that the gate of the East Ruimveldt Police station was blown off after an improvised explosive device was thrown at the facility by unknown individuals.
Police said the two incidents occurred around the same time.
“Authorities are examining the possibility of a coordinated effort between both incidents.
“Eyewitnesses in the area have provided valuable accounts, and forensic teams are actively analyzing all available evidence. The individuals contacted by police remain key to understanding the full scope of the events,” Police said in a statement issued Saturday afternoon.
The Police Force statement also noted that the matters are being “seriously” addressed and that all efforts are being made to ensure public safety.
