Maxi-taxi Driver Previously Charged in Officer Confrontation Robbed in Chaguanas

Rondell Bowen, a maxi-taxi driver who was previously involved in a confrontation with licensing officers, has fallen victim to an armed robbery in Chaguanas. The incident occurred on Thursday, April 2, 2026, while Bowen was plying his trade.

After the robbery, Bowen visited the Chaguanas Police Station to report the incident. However, details surrounding the robbery remain unclear. Authorities have yet to disclose any information regarding the suspects or whether any arrests have been made in relation to the incident.

Bowen is no stranger to controversy. He gained public attention in mid-March following an altercation with licensing officers in Curepe. The incident was widely circulated on social media after a video surfaced showing a heated exchange between Bowen and the officials. This incident ended with Bowen being charged with assaulting a licensing officer during an enforcement exercise.

While the previous event brought Bowen into the spotlight, this recent robbery underlines the risks faced by those in his profession. Further information about the robbery is yet to be released.
