Tucville man to be charged for murder of female guard

Jun 01, 2009 News


– eyewitness claimed to have seen him fleeing crime scene

Police say they expect to charge a Tucville Squatting Area resident this week, for the murder of R.K’s Security Guard, Simone Coleridge, but they believe that at least two other men helped to bind and strangle the woman.
The suspect is one of two men from the squatting community, who police detained last week shortly after the 43-year-old guard was slain at Uncle Eddie’s home.
Kaieteur News understands that an eyewitness has claimed to have seen one of the suspects fleeing from the benevolent home, shortly before Coleridge’s bound and gagged body was found inside.
Police confirmed that the 30-year-old man was recently questioned about a carjacking.
Detectives are still to ascertain if the fingerprints of any of the suspects, match those they lifted from articles that were stolen and subsequently recovered.
A relative of one of the arrested men, said he is gainfully employed as a mason and carpenter.
According to the relative, police alleged that they had received information that a man resembling the suspect in custody, was seen at Uncle Eddie’s home at the time Coleridge was slain.
Simone Coleridge was bound, gagged and strangled while on duty at Uncle Eddie’s Home.
Her killers escaped with a small refrigerator, a microwave oven and a television set, however, these items were later found at a location near the nursing home.
An autopsy revealed that she was manually strangled and the killers stuffed a piece of cloth in her mouth which caused her to suffocate.
