Kwame’s hit and run victim still wants justice

Oct 21, 2009 News

“I ain’t want to make no handicap child”

Thirty-two-year old Yulanda Anthony yesterday expressed her outrage that nothing has so far been done to Kwame McCoy after he allegedly hit her with his vehicle.
According to Anthony, she had given statements to the Police and was told that she would be receiving a phone call in connection with having a meeting with McCoy to “have a confrontation.”
This week she discovered that the case has gone before the Department of Public Prosecutions. She is still upset that she was never called to meet with McCoy.
The now three months pregnant mother of five complained to Kaieteur News of “having terrible back pains,” and desperately wants justice.
“(Kwame) can’t be doing things and walking the road free. I ain’t able make no handicap child.”
Anthony stated that she had gone to the Medical Arts Centre some weeks ago, and had to receive additional medication for the aches and pains she developed after the McCoy incident.
On September 10, last, Anthony was allegedly hit by Kwame McCoy’s vehicle, while it was being pummeled by placards from protestors, while McCoy was making his way from the handing over ceremony of the newly constructed New Horizons East La Penitence Clinic.
Anthony told reporters that she was entering a shop off the side of the road when McCoy’s vehicle turned her way and charged her down.
“He came till into duh corner to hit me.”
Anthony further claimed to have heard McCoy saying “I gon hit sum @#$%^&* body.”
